Globe Valve

A globe valve is a linear motion valve used to shut off and regulate fluid flow in pipelines. Depending on the number of process connections, they are produced as two‑ or three-way valves. The main valve component carrying the internal pressure is the valve body. For safe exploitation, the valves are designed with the allowable internal pressure taken into consideration. The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of the wall thickness on the allowable and failure pressures of two- and tree-way globe valve bodies, DN50 and DN100 respectively. Twice-elastic-slope (TES) and the tangent‑intersection (TI) methods are used to obtain the plastic collapse pressures at the critical location which was determined (Fig. 1a and 1b) at the location where maximum equivalent plastic strain throughout the valve body thickness reaches the outer surface. Obtained values are used afterwards to calculate corresponding allowable pressures according to the limit design method, while the failure pressure at the same location was determined as the highest point from the load-maximal principal strain curve. Calculated allowable pressure values, for both valve bodies, are compared with the corresponding ones obtained using the EN standard.

Hasofer-Lind method was applied to reliability design of cylindrical shell with internal pressure. The respective reliability design thickness of different diameter ratio was obtained in the case and compared with the thickness by the second moment reliability design method. The results showed that the wall thickness of cylindrical shell with internal pressure is the thinnest by using Hasofer-Lind method. And it is closest to the wall thickness of the second moment method in which the performance function was defined as the difference in actual wall thickness and the wall thickness needed for cylindrical shell with internal pressure.

A method of prestressing two-layer pressure vessels by controlled yielding of the inner layer by internal pressure is described. The required prestressing pressure depends upon the dimensions of the vessel, the initial clearance between layers, and the properties of the material of construction. The design method takes into account the actual stress-strain curve of the material and satisfies the rules of plastic flow with work-hardening. Two-layer, cylindrical vessels are discussed in detail.

Walled Cylinder

A technique for elastic-plastic analysis of a thick-walled elastic-plastic cylinder under internal pressure is proposed. It involves two parametric functions and piecewise linearization of the stress-strain curve. A deformation type of relationship is combined with Hooke’s law in such a way that stress-strain law has the same form in all linear segments, but each segment involves different material parameters. Elastic values are used to describe elastic part of deformation during loading and also during unloading. The technique involves the use of deformed geometry to satisfy the boundary and other relevant conditions. The value of strain energy required for deformation is found to depend on whether initial or final geometry is used to satisfy the boundary conditions. In the case of low work-hardening solid, the difference is significant and cannot be ignored. As well, it is shown that the new formulation is appropriate for elastic-plastic fracture calculations.

When considering the creep of cylinders subjected to internal pressure, the theory of Johnson et al. takes into account progressive changes of radial, circumferential and axial stress at any point in the wall thickness. This approach differs from that put forward by Bailey, who assumed that these stresses remained constant with time. The present paper summarizes an examination of both theories, with particular reference to outside and bore diameters, and presents simple equations which enable circumferential strain to be calculated without using the complex graphical integration procedure suggested by Johnson. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that these equations are mathematically identical with those derived by Bailey.

Methods to quantify ventricle material properties noninvasively using in vivo data are of great important in clinical applications. An ultrasound echo-based computational modeling approach was proposed to quantify left ventricle (LV) material properties, curvature, and stress/strain conditions and find differences between normal LV and LV with infarct. Echo image data were acquired from five patients with myocardial infarction (I-Group) and five healthy volunteers as control (H-Group). Finite element models were constructed to obtain ventricle stress and strain conditions. Material stiffening and softening were used to model ventricle active contraction and relaxation. Systolic and diastolic material parameter values were obtained by adjusting the models to match echo volume data. Young's modulus (YM) value was obtained for each material stress–strain curve for easy comparison. LV wall thickness, circumferential and longitudinal curvatures (C- and L-curvature), material parameter values, and stress/strain values were recorded for analysis. Using the mean value of H-Group as the base value, at end-diastole, I-Group mean YM value for the fiber direction stress–strain curve was 54% stiffer than that of H-Group (136.24 kPa versus 88.68 kPa). At end-systole, the mean YM values from the two groups were similar (175.84 kPa versus 200.2 kPa). More interestingly, H-Group end-systole mean YM was 126% higher that its end-diastole value, while I-Group end-systole mean YM was only 29% higher that its end-diastole value. This indicated that H-Group had much greater systole–diastole material stiffness variations. At beginning-of-ejection (BE), LV ejection fraction (LVEF) showed positive correlation with C-curvature, stress, and strain, and negative correlation with LV volume, respectively. At beginning-of-filling (BF), LVEF showed positive correlation with C-curvature and strain, but negative correlation with stress and LV volume, respectively. Using averaged values of two groups at BE, I-Group stress, strain, and wall thickness were 32%, 29%, and 18% lower (thinner), respectively, compared to those of H-Group. L-curvature from I-Group was 61% higher than that from H-Group. Difference in C-curvature between the two groups was not statistically significant. Our results indicated that our modeling approach has the potential to determine in vivo ventricle material properties, which in turn could lead to methods to infer presence of infarct from LV contractibility and material stiffness variations. Quantitative differences in LV volume, curvatures, stress, strain, and wall thickness between the two groups were provided.

The effect of oscillation of internal pressure on the formability and shape accuracy of the products in a pulsating hydroforming process of T-shaped parts was examined by finite element simulation. The local thinning was prevented by oscillating the internal pressure. The filling ratio of the die cavity and the symmetrical degree of the filling was increased by the oscillation of pressure. The calculated deforming shape and the wall thickness are in good agreement with the experimental ones. It was found that pulsating hydroforming is useful in improving the formability and shape accuracy in the T-shape hydroforming operation.

Abstract The large-diameter solid expandable tubular with a smaller wall thickness faces the risk of internal pressure burst and external squeeze collapse in repairing damaged casing well. The internal pressure and external squeezing resistance calculation of the tubes using the analytical method require many expansion experiments and post-expansion tensile experiments, resulting in high costs and low efficiency. This paper gives a set of laboratory expansion and post-expansion performance test, which is based on the laboratory experiment and mechanical properties of material expansion. Two materials are studied: 316L and 20G. Then it analyses the error and causes of the error in the traditional analytical algorithm. Besides, it establishes an accurate finite element (FE) model to study the quantitative influence of expansion ratio and wall thickness on the burst strengths and collapse strengths of the tube. The results show that the toughness and hardening ratio of 316L is better than 20G at the same expansion ratio. The numerical simulation results of the model can effectively simulate the expansion process and the mechanical properties of SET in good agreement with the laboratory test results. The expansion ratio and wall thickness affect the mechanical properties after expansion. Thus the quantitative laws of the expansion driving force, internal pressure resistance, and external squeezing resistance under different variables are summarized. To ensure the integrity of the reinforced wellbore, the expansion ratio should not exceed 12.7%. In the current study lays a theoretical basis and technical support for optimizing SET and preventing downhole accidents.
