Formula

The internal pressures are calculated by using the following formula:

Do/Di ≤ 1.7:

Do/Di > 1.7:

Symbol Description
P Internal pressure (MPa) (*10 => bar)
eord Ordered wall thickness (mm)
c1 Manufacturing tolerance, absolute value (mm)
Do Nominal outside diameter (mm)
Di Nominal inside diameter (mm) (Di =Do-2×eord)
z Welding factor, 1.0 for seamless tubes
f Maximum allowed stress (MPa), see also below:
At Minimum ductility, transverse (%)

Austenitic steels

At >= 35%
f = Rp1.0t / 1.5 ( or min. ( Rp1.0t / 1.2 ; Rmt / 3 ), if Rmt is available)* ( t = here at temp.)

30% <= At < 35%
f = min (Rp1.0t/1.5 or Rm/2.4)*

*The programme always calculates with Rp1.0t/1.5 for austenitic grades, but if Rmt or Rm is known for the specific grade and size, and at temp. for Rmt, this may give a more favorable result in case of At > 35% or respectively > 30% as above.

Austenitic steels with At < 30 % and steels other than austenitic (here used for the austenitic - ferritic steels, i.e. duplex stainless steels)

f = min. ( ( ReHt / 1.5) or Rp0.2t / 1.5 ; Rm / 2.4 )

Attention: Allowed maximum wall thickness
Austenitic corrosion resisting steels 60 mm
Austenitic - ferritic steels 30 mm

Attention: The pressures on these pages are given only as guidance. Dimensioning of piping systems also depends on other factors like external forces, thermal stresses, dead weight etc. Furthermore, the design must be made according to regulations from local authorities and approved accordingly.
