What is V-1401 Shell Brittle Temperature Analysis about?
A level-3 fracture mechanics assessment was performed on a spherical shell according to API 579 to determine its minimum allowable temperature (MAT). The assessment involved 12 steps including determining stress distributions and intensities from various pressure load scenarios, estimating material toughness, and evaluating if failure assessment diagram points fell within the allowable envelope. The assessment failed for all three pressure load scenarios and their assumed temperatures of -55°C, -60°C, and -
