Life Extension of Bolted Flanged Connections From a Design Peculiarities Point of View
Keyword(s):
Life extension of Bolted Flanged Connections (BFC) depends directly on early leakage that is a major cause of bolt degradation and failure. Experiments with standard BFC typically used in Nuclear Power Plant equipment and subjected to bolt preload and subsequent internal pressure revealed an influence of the BFC design peculiarities on early leakage. The experimental data became a basis for BFC design improvement.
