Blind Flange Thickness Calculation

The document provides equations and values for calculating the minimum wall thickness (Tm) required for a flange with an inside diameter (dg) of 35.252 inches under a design gauge pressure (P) of 1480.8 PSI. It calculates Tm as (dg x square root of (3P/16SxE)) + C, where S is the allowable stress value of 23300 PSI, E is the weld joint efficiency factor of 1, and C is the corrosion allowance of 0 inches. Using these values, it determines the minimum required wall thickness (Tm) is 3.848 inches.

Tm = Flange minimum wall thickness

dg = 35.252 Inch Inside Diameter of Gasket

P = 1480.8 PSI Design gauge pressure

E = 1 Weld joint Efficiency factor

S = 23300 PSI Allowable Stress value of material

C = 0 Inch Corrosion Allowance

Tm = ( dg √ 3P / 16 S E ) + C

Tm = ( 35.25 √ 4442.4 / 372800 ) + 0

= ( 35.25 x 0.109161848 ) + 0 SA-36
