Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of flange connection systems, and in particular relates to a method for designing the pretightening load of flange bolts based on nonlinear gaskets. Background technique
[0002] In pressure equipment and pipelines, due to the needs of production technology and installation and maintenance, detachable sealed connection structures are usually used. Among them, flange connection is the most typical detachable sealed connection, which is widely used in medium and low pressure vessels and pipelines. Although the flange connection is very practical in disassembly, there is always a potential leakage hazard. Even at normal temperature, if the working pressure and bolt pre-tightening force are not set properly, the rebound performance of the gasket will be reduced, and the stress of the gasket will be reduced. If the flange deflection angle increases, the tightness of the bolted flange connection system will be damaged due t...
