APPENDIX F-CRITERIA FOR PIPING DESIGN

F.1

Horizontal Pumps

F.1.1 Acceptable pipmg configuratons should not cause

excessive misalignment between the pump and driver. Pip
ing configurations that produce component nozzle Ioads ly
ing within the ranges specified in Table 2.lA (2.18) will
limit casing distortion to one half the pump vendor's design
criterion (see 2.2.8) and will ensure pump shaft
displacement of less than 250 um (0.lO in.).
F.1.2

Piping configurations that produce loads outside the

ranges specifed in Table 2.1 A (2.1 B) are also acceptable

without consultation with the pump vendor if the

conditions specified in F.1.2. l through F.1.2.3 are satis:fied.
Satisfying these conditions will ensure that any pump
casing distortion will be within the vendors design criteria
(see 2.2.&) and that the displacement of the pump shaft will
be less than 380 m (0.015 in.). Note: This is a criterion
for piping design only.
F.1.2.1 The individual component forces and moments act
ing on each pump nozzle flange shall not exceed the range
specified in Table 2. IA (2.1 B) by a factor of more than 2.
F.1.2.2 The resultant applied force (FRS A> FRD A) and
the resultant applied moment (MRS,., MRDA) acting on
each pump nozzle flange shall satisfy the appropriate
interaction equation (Equatons F1 and F2).

F.1.2.3 The applied component forces and moments acting

on each pump nozzle flange must be translated to the
center
of the pump. The magnitude of the resultant applied force
(FRCA), tbe resultant applied moment (MRC A), and the
ap
plied moment shall be limited by Equations F3, F4, and F
5. (The sigo convention shown in Figures 2.22.6 and the
right hand rule should be used in evaluating these
equations.)

Note: When U.S. units are used, the constant 1000 must be changed to

or
inches to feet.

F.1.3 Pipng confgurations that produce loads greater than

those allowed in F.1.2 shall be mutually approved by the
pur chaser and the vendor.

F.2 Vertical In-Llne Pumps

Vertical inline pumps that are supported only by the ar
tached piping may be subjected to component piping loads
that are more than double the values shown in Table 2.IA
(2.IB) if these loads do not cause a principal stress greater
than 41 MPa (5950 psi) in either nozzle. For calculation
pur- poses, the section properties of the pump nozzles
shall be based on Schedule 40 pipe whose nominal size is
equal to that of the appropriate pump nozzle. Bquations F6A (F6B), F7 A (F 7B), and F8A (F8B) can be used to
evaluate prin cipal stress, longitudinal stress, and shear
stress, respecrvely, in the nozzles.

omilted to simplify the equations. The sign of FY is positive if the load
puts the nozzle n tensoo; the sign is negative if the load puts the nozzle

to deter mine whether the nozzle is in teoson or compression. The absolute

Nomenclature

The following defnitions apply to the sample problems in

F4:
C = center of the pump. For pump types OH2
and BB2 with two support pedestals,
the
center is defined by the intersection of
the pump shaft centerline and a vertical
plane passing through the center of the
two pedestals (see Figures 2.5 and 2.6).
For pump types BBI. BB3, BB4 and
BB5 with four support pedestals, the
cerner is defined by tbe intersection of
tbe purnp shaft centerline and a vertical
plane pass ing midway between the
four pedestals (see Figure 24).

Problem

Por a 3 x 4 x 7 vertical inlioe pump, the proposed applied

nozzle loadings are as given in Table F3B. By inspection,
fZS,.,MZSA,and MXD . ._are greater than two times the
values shown in Table 2.1 B. As stated in F.2, these
component loads are acceptal>le provided that the calculated
principal stress is less than 5950 psi. The problem is to
determine the principal stress for the suction nozzle and the
discharge nozzle.

Equation F8B is used to determine the shear stress for

the suction nozzle, t

The principal stress for the sucton nozzle, P., is

calculated using Equation F68:
P, = ( a. 2) + ( <J ,2 4 + t ,2)5 <

= {+3367 / 2) + [(+3367)2/

Thus, the suction nozzle loads are satisfactory.

Thus, the discharge nozzle loads are too large. By

inspec tion, if MXD ... is reduced by 50 percent to 1000 ftlbs
the re sulting principal stress will still exceed 5950 psi.
Therefore, the maximum valu for MXDA will be twice
MXDn, or 1400 ftIbs.
