[MW:2732] RE: 2731] Wall thickness according to ASME B31.4

Hello Swapnil,

 

Both calculation formula will give same results,

 

Please follow the unit convention as specified in Notations.

1) t=PD/2S The Normal formula is applicable with Parameters values for Pressure, Diameter and Allowable stress in Psi, Inch and Psi , respt. and your thickness will be in INCHES

 

2) ( t=PD/20S ), formula is applicable with Parameters values for Pressure, Diameter and Allowable stress in Bar, mm and Mpa and your thickness will be in mm.

 

Hope this clarifies well...
