Introduction
The students will learn how a process plant is designed, and how the pipe system in a process plant is designed in order to meet the requirements of the flowing medium, processing equipment and other external conditions. The students will learn how to apply a 3D modelling tool, as well as the calculation tool Caesar II for stress and flexibility analysis of a pipe system.
Recommended preliminary courses
TThe course is based on MAPE1300 Mechanics, MATS2300 Construction Mechanics, MAFE1000 Mathematics 1000 and MAPE2000 Mathematics 2000.
Required preliminary courses
None.
Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and competence:
Knowledge
The student has an understanding of the complexity of designing a process plant, and can construct a pipe system in such a process plant.
The students have insight into and can apply and develop the following:
- Documents used in piping projects
- Piping sizes and piping codes
- Piping components and equipment
- Loads in a piping system
- Stress and flexibility analysis
- Design Code B31.3
- Support design
- Load on pipe ends
- Flange leak, Kellogg’s theorem
