Product Reviews

Ascent Engineering was engaged to design a bottom filter for a slug catcher in compliance with ASME Section VIII, Division 2 Design by Analysis requirements, applying elastic stress analysis procedures. The filter was designed for an operating pressure of 133 barg and a temperature of 80 °C. To ensure a robust and code-compliant design, advanced finite element analysis (FEA) techniques were employed.

Key aspects of the design included:

N1 and N2 nozzle openings that are larger than 25% of the cylinder diameter necessitate a thorough stress analysis to account for local load effects.
Buckling analysis to verify structural stability under external pressure conditions.
Flange integrity analysis to confirm adequacy against external loads per design criteria.

By validating each of these critical parameters, Ascent demonstrated a safe, reliable, and optimized solution, reinforcing our commitment to delivering engineering excellence through state-of-the-art analysis capabilities.
