How to Predict Thermal-Hydraulic Loads
on Pressure Vessels and Piping
PD382
When a vessel, pipe or other component fails in a fluid transport or
storage system, a thermal-hydraulic load probably exceeded design
limits. Excessive pressure change, fluid acceleration, water hammer or
rapid energy transfer mechanisms are often the cause. Such problems
can be avoided if the engineer correctly anticipates the magnitude and
time response of the loads that could occur.
This course summarizes numerous thermal-hydraulic loads that can be
exerted on vessels, pipes, components and structures. It provides a
greater awareness of thermal-hydraulic loads, demonstrates how to use
a variety of handout tools for estimating load characteristics while at the instability will be covered in-depth. Attendees are introduced to state-
same time instilling confidence in making either reasonable bounding
estimates or rigorous predictions of loads.
Participants receive a comprehensive course notebook, which includes
a “tool-kit” complete with tables, graphs, rules-of-thumb, useful
formulations for estimating thermal-hyrdraulic loads for a range of
applications, example problems, exercises plus a reference textbook
useful for advanced self-study.
You Will Learn To
• Explain how to anticipate steady and unsteady thermal-hydraulic
loading phenomena in the design or modification of vessel, piping
and component systems
• Estimate dominant characteristics of thermal-hydraulic forces
• Describe how to avoid or mitigate unwanted forces by selecting
appropriate design parameters or restructuring a procedure
Who Should Attend
Engineers, technical and project managers as well as engineering
instructors wishing to upgrade their understanding of thermal-hydraulic
phenomena and associated loads, including individuals whose business
or professional interests involve pressure vessels, piping and thermofluid
system components, as well as researchers and inventors seeking new
ideas to help improve components and processes
Special Requirement
A degree in engineering, engineering science, physics or other scientific
discipline is recommended.

Flow-Induced Vibration with Applications
to Failure Analysis
PD146
Problem-solving methodologies are the main focus of this BOILERS AND PRESSURE VESSELS � PUBLIC COURSES
comprehensive course on practical applications of flow and vibration
theory. The latest design and analysis tools for the prediction and
prevention of vibration in structures exposed to high-energy fluid flow
are covered in practical detail.
This comprehensive course reviews fundamentals of flow and vibration
theory. Attendees benefit from the problem-solving activities at the
conclusion of each section. Topics such as vortex and turbulence
induced vibration, galloping, flutter, sonic fatigue and fluid-elastic
of-the-art analysis tools for the prediction and prevention of vibration
in structures exposed to high-energy fluid flow. Case studies and a
workshop create an interactive course that aid engineers at various
levels.
Each participant will receive a copy of the book, Flow-Induced Vibration,
(2nd Edition), by Dr. Robert Blevins.
You Will Learn To:
• Explain the vortex-induced vibration, galloping, flutter, sonic fatigue
and fluid elastic instability
• Describe the latest Vibration theory and ASME B&PV Code, Section III:
N-1300 on Flow-Induced Vibration
• Describe the analysis and test techniques in conjunction with
strategies for successful design
• Evaluate examples of heat exchanger vibration, strumming of cables
and vibration and fatigue of pipes and panels
• Analyze the root cause of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge Collapse
• Determine how the flow-induced tube vibrations caused the
shutdown at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating station.
Who Should Attend
Engineers in the design, mechanical, product development, system,
R&D, noise, maintenance and diagnostics fields, as well as supervisors
and managers responsible for the economic impact of flow-induced
component damage
