COMPRESS and ASME VIII-2 (Division 2)

Codeware/COMPRESS and ASME VIII-2 (Division 2)
https://www.codeware.com/author/paulwp-1/
New For 2017 in Division 2 Class 1 Vessels
It is more economical to build certain categories of pressure
vessels to Division 2 instead of Division 1. Division 2s lower
design margins and more accurate design rules (equations)
result in reduced wall thicknesses, nozzle reinforcement and
welding. To further reduce costs, the 2017 Edition of the ASME
Section VIII Division 2 Code divides vessels into two classes,
Class 1 and Class 2. These vessel classes have different design
margins and professional engineers (PE) certification
requirements but are similar in most other ways.
A Comparison of Class 1 and Class 2 Vessels
The requirements for Class 2 vessels are largely unchanged from
the 2015 Edition of ASME VIII-2. Class 1 vessels are new for
2017 and differ from Class 2 vessels as follows:
Class 1 vessels use a design margin of 3.0 instead of 2.4.
However, not all materials are affected by this change. A
Class 1 vessel constructed from a commonly used steel like
SA-516 70 will not see a change in allowable stress or
required thickness as compared to the same vessel designed
to Class 2.
A Users Design Specification (PE) certification is required
only for cases where a fatigue analysis is necessary.
A Manufacturers Design Report (PE) certification is required
only if Part 5 is used to design a component not covered by
the equations of Part 4 or if a fatigue analysis is necessary.
The new Class 1 vessel designation allows U2 Stamp holders to
build material saving Division 2 vessels without all of the
additional overhead involved in producing full Class 2 vessels.
Our implementation of the Division 2 design by rule calculations
is included with INSPECT and is available as an option in
COMPRESS.

ASME VIII-2 Versus ASME VIII-1 Cost Considerations
The overall cost reduction between Division 1 and Division 2 depends on answering
the following question. Do the material and labor savings exceed the additional
engineering, quality control and administrative costs? Historically, large, thick
vessels have been good candidates for Division 2. The introduction of Class 1 vessels
in the 2017 Edition of Division 2 gives more flexibility when deciding which
Division is more cost efficient. Cost savings are now available in more cases
including carbon steel vessels operating at temperatures below about 600 degrees F
(315 degrees C). With the COMPRESS Division 2 Option you can switch between
Divisions and Classes at any time. This makes it easy to determine which Division
and Class produces the lightest, most economical vessel design.
How Does Division 2 Differ From Division 1?
One of the main differences between Divisions 1 and 2 is that Division 2 uses lower
design margins often resulting in higher material allowable stresses. Design
margins are reduction factors applied to the materials ultimate tensile strength
(UTS) for the purpose of setting material allowable stresses in ASME II-D. The
design margins are currently 3.5 for Division 1, 3.0 for Division 2, Class 1 and 2.4
for Division 2, Class 2. In Division 1, hydrotest stresses are not specifically limited
and partial penetration nozzle welds are permitted. In Division 2, hydrotest stresses
are limited so hydrotest stress calculations are mandatory and full penetration
nozzle welds are required.
Another major difference is the theory of failure assumed and therefore the design
equations used. Specifically, Divison 1 uses the maximum principle stress theory
while, starting with the 2007 Edition, Divison 2 uses Von Mises. As a result Division
1 uses two sets of design equations one for thin and another for thick vessels
while Division 2 uses one set of equations for all vessel thicknesses. Of particular
note are the more accurate nozzle design and allowable compressive stress (external
pressure) rules in Division 2 both of which can provide additional savings.
In general, thinner Division 2 vessels retain safety factors that are comparable to
thicker Division 1 vessels by incorporating more extensive engineering analysis and
design requirements.
