ME0409 : Caesar II

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

Ensuring your plant’s piping systems adhere to international codes and standards plays an integral role in keeping your plant operational. CAESAR II software makes it easy to input and display all the data needed to accurately define a piping system analysis model. It evaluates the structural responses and stresses of your piping systems to international codes and standards and enables you to access and modify, if necessary, input element by element or globally. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date knowledge on CAESAR II. It covers the software's basic features, applications and user interface; the setup, configuration and data input methods of CAESAR II; the fundamental concepts in pipe stress analysis; the piping codes, components and supports; the steel structure supports and sustained loads versus spring hanger design; the expansion joints design and analysis and flange assessment; the stress intensification factors for elbows and interconnections; the expansion loops and buried pipeline analysis; and the piping evaluation for fatigue due to seismic and wind loads and other occasional loads with static equivalents. 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the local stresses in vessels and nozzles; the pump and nozzle flexibility according to API 610 standards; the RFP piping systems and transmission lines; the finite element analysis tools available in CAESAR II; the concepts learned in CAESAR II to real-world model analysis; the basic theory of dynamics in relation to CAESAR II; the harmonics analysis, spectral analysis, relief valve analysis, history analysis, seismic design and system responses evaluation; the flow induced vibration, impact load analysis and dealing with complex piping systems; and the common errors in pipe stress analysis and how to mitigate them.
