Notes :
1) Gasket dimensions are as per ANSI B 16.20
2) Allowable Pressure is as per "Pressure-Temperature" Chart from ANSI B16.5.
3) This table is prepared based on ASME Section III, Paragraph NC-3658.1.
4) All values of Static output results (Force & Moments) for different cases are considered for the calculation.
6) The formula used to calculate the Equivalent Pressure is as follows :
Peqv = Pd + 4*F/3.14*G2 + 16*M/3.14*G3
where ; Pd = Internal Pressure
F = Axial Force
G = Mean Diameter of Gasket
M = Resultant Bending Moment
7) Units have been converted suitably.
