CAESAR II Has Always Determined & Used

the “Maximum Value”.

But What Does “Considering All Support

Conditions” Mean?

“… All Support Conditions (Positions) ofThe Pipe …”

Each Operating Load Case (For ParticularSupport Condition) Could Produce aDifferent Sustained Stress Distribution.

The Expansion Allowable Must Be Based

on The Maximum Sustained Stress,Considering All of These Operating LoadCases.

Consider This Example:

Only 2 of The Branch Lines are Hot.

One Branch Line is Cold.

System Has Three “Real” Operating Conditions, All Producing aDifferent Primary (Sustained) Stress State Due to Different Non-linear

Support Condition.

How Can This Be Achieved, Automatically In The Software?

[K]{x} = {F} : Performed Numerical Solution

For Any Given Load Case, Once Convergence is Achieved, The Final[K] is a Linear Representation of The Boundary Current Conditions.

This [K] Can Then Be Reused In a Subsequent Load Case With aNew Load Vector, {F}.

This is Achieved In CAESAR II 2016 By a Modification to The StaticLoad Case Editor, to Permit The Reuse of [K] In An “AlternateSustained” Load Case.

18/34




Common “Resting” Support, +Y

Restraint In CAESAR II Terms:Initially, The Restraint Will Be Included In The

Model So The Stiffness Matrix Will Reflect This:

If The Solution Shows a -Y Load on ThatRestraint, This Support is Modeled Correctly(for this load case). If Not, The Program ResetsThe Stiffness Matrix to Appear As This:

If This Updated Solution Shows a +YDeflection, This Support is Modeled Correctly(for this load case). If Not, The Program Resets

The Stiffness Matrix to Appear As This:

…And This Iteration Continues – For All TheNonlinear Restraints & For Each Load CaseAnalyzed – Until The Stiffness Matrix isConsistent With The “Final” Position.

[K]{x} = {F}

Reuse of The Converged (Linearized) Stiffness Matrix [K] Means:

1.Pipe Lifting Off of Supports is Addressed.

2.Other, Non-vertical, Directional Restraints are Properly Considered.

3.Gaps, Closed or Open, are Properly Considered.

4.Friction is Properly Addressed (Sliding Versus Non-sliding).

5.Any Other Non-linear Boundary Condition Effects are Addressed.

19




20/34




Benefits of Reusing The Converged (Linearized) Stiffness Matrix [K]

1.Software Analytically Determines The Active/Inactive Status of Non-linear Restraints, on a “Per Load Case” Basis.

2.Single Model Can Be Used to Determine The Primary Stresses In AllStates of The Piping System.

3.Incorrect or Incomplete Manual User Linearization is Avoided.

4.Efficiency Increases With Increasing Load Cases & Load Primitives:

A System with 9 Temperatures & 4 Independent Wind Vectors …a) You May Have 45 Operating Cases & Therefore …b) 45 “Alternate Sustained” Load Cases.

When CAESAR II is Used In/On Projects Related to

The Nuclear Industry , US & International Customers

Should Be Made Aware of Our CAESAR II Nuclear QA

& Reporting Annual Service & The PPM NUCLEAR

QUALITY ASSURANCE AGREEMENT – GT STRUDL &

CAESAR II (DDCC502A0) When They Purchase a

CAESAR II License.

CAESAR II Nuclear QA & Reporting Annual Service is

an additional yearly service fee. This satisfies the

requirements of US 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B (QA

Reporting)

(Service is optional, but encouraged, for International

users of CAESAR II.)
