System Fluids are H2 (target fluid) and He (CHL/ESR refrigerant). Temperatures are low, 4K (He) and 20K liquid H2. Major Components

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 How to Implement JLab Pressure Policies? Some of the design and fabrication work started before January 2008. What do we do with components under construction? What policies do we have to comply with for new designs? How do we treat the non standard components in the system? Scheduling and budgetary constraints were applying pressure to continue with business as usual. Asked the Pressure Committee for guidance.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Heat Exchanger UA of HX was established to provide more than 2.5 kW at 20 K. Designed in house and sent out for bids at 2 code shops. We provided the necessary code calculations (saved money). –Meyer Tool: Found design conflict with code. (UW-2b low temperature) –Eden Cryogenics: Lowest bidder but missed the error. –This caused procurement headache. Statement of work: Used the language lowest price technically acceptable. Language using Best value would have made it easier to reject unsuitable vendor.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 HX at Meyer Tool

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Cell and Pump The Codes do not apply. Pump case and cell body are made from unlisted aluminum alloys. –Weld procedures are needed. –Design strength of welds are unknown. –WPS was developed and tested. Used lowest pull test values for design. –Using design basis in B31.3 for unlisted materials where possible. More complex analysis was needed for non standard geometries. –FEA (VIII D2) –Reviewed hand calculations Rely on testing for unlisted materials/geometries: –Pressure testing of components B13.3 where possible Use sound engineering judgment/peer review –Sensitive He leak check in reverse. Thin cell apertures are being extensively tested. No impact testing was performed.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Hydrogen and Refrigeration Plumbing This plumbing has been designed and fabricated to B31.3 The Minimum Design Metal Temperature (MDMT) is -452 F. There are non standard components in the system (Conflat flanges, unlisted materials…) Parts of the system are contained in an large insulating vacuum vessel. Parts of the system are already existing. Expansion joints (flexible metal hose) were used to alleviate stress from temperature gradients, misalignments, seismic and other loads. A complex flexibility analysis can be simplified (B31.3 319.4). How should seismic loads be quantified and treated?

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Implications of low MDMT B31.3 requires impact testing for SST304 at this temperature. Tests are required for base metal, weld metal, and HAZ. St Louis Testing Lab is capable of doing this. Section VIII has 2 provisions which can be helpful. –UHA-51g allows for exemption from impact testing for low stress in high alloy steels. B31.3 has a similar exemption but with a temperature limitation. –Div 1 and 2 have a provision that impact testing may be performed at 77K for SST304 when 316L welding rod is used with an F number less than 5. B31.3 does not have such a provision. Only components thick enough are required to be tested.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 B31.3 Conflat (CF) Flanges Conflat (CF) flanges have been used extensively in the past. They provide a reliable seal at design temperature. Allow for quick replacement and modification of system components. Eliminate RadCon issues from welding/grinding/brazing. B31.3 references VIII Appendix 2. Flange bolt loads and gasket seating forces were measured for a variety of geometries and gasket materials. Off the shelf CF flanges and bolts are not compliant with Appendix 2 (at least in a conservative analysis) when using standard copper gaskets. MDC will supply COC but not CMTRs. Flanges may not be made from bar stock (UG-14). Bolt stress exceeds code allowable for SST.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Lessons Learned Code may apply to some components and not others. Where the code does apply it must be used. Use caution when writing statements of work to allow for changes and mistakes. Low MDMT can lead to challenges –Charpy tests –Subtleties in the code Unlisted materials can be useful but require some type of analysis/testing to determine design criteria. Policy/guidance regarding seismic analysis would be useful.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Repair or Modification? ESH&Q Ch. 6151 ¶6.8 Repairing or Modifying a Pressure System –Repairs to piping systems shall be made using sound engineering principles. –Modifications to piping systems shall be made using current ASME Codes and/or documented equivalent measures. –Changing the service of a pressure vessel or piping system is also viewed as a modification. Changing the service can mean any change in the application or change in the location of the vessel or piping if the structural support is affected. Neither application or location were changed. Interpreted as a repair of the piping system.

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Material Stainless steel did not have certifications –Spectrum analyzer –Does not distinguish between 304 and 304L –304L assumed for conservative analysis (allowable stress of 16.7 ksi as opposed to 20 ksi).

of 54 Pressure System Seminar Part 2, 15 May, 2009 Root Cause October 04 Engineering change No record of a walk-down Lack of an established, controlled process for verification of engineering changes resulted in unchanged outlet pipe Implementation of ESH&Q Chapter 6151 establishes multiple checks to prevent such occurrences 04 Installation Drawing
