Extruded Outlet

Property

Description

Name

Element name. If checked then it shown in 3D view

Get properties from matching pipe

Automatically get header wall thickness, material, Wc factor and other parameters from matching pipe

Calculate weight automatically

If selected, tee weight is calculated automatically as total volume of two header and branch cylinders

Header length, L

Tee header length. Used for more accurate tee weight calculation (see "weight")

Crotch height, L1

Crotch height

Tee height, H

Tee height form header axis to neck end. Tee height = D/2 + L1

Material

Material from the materials database

Weight

Tee weight without insulation and product. Value set in standards is used, without taking into account the overload factor. Product and insulation weight with corresponding overload factors is calculated automatically based on adjoining pipes

Longitudinal Weld Joint Efficiency Factor, E

Longitudinal weld joint efficiency factor, E. More...

Use notes 6,9,10

Should be checked if number of displacement cycles exceeds 200

Meet D1, Note 10 a,c,d,e,f

Manufacturing technology

For ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, DL/T 5366-2014 seamless pipe will always use Wl=1.0. For electric-welded pipe Wl will be specified from database. More...

When using  GOST 32388-2013, pipe physical properties are taken from different materials databases depending on pipe type (seamless/welded).

Flanges on tee header

ASME B31J-2017 Note 7 requirement

0 - No flanges

1 - One flange (on the one end of tee header)

2 - Two flanges (on both ends of tee header)

Crotch radius, rx (r)

Crotch radius. If rx=0, then rx=do/2 is used. do is outer diameter of the branch

Nominal header wall thickness, tn

Header wall thickness. START-PROF use this wall thickness to calculate SIF, flexibility factors, Z
