Series A and Series B indicate different flange dimensions (refers to ASME B16.47)

When i use autopipe vessle to design pressure vessel based on ASME code, how can i set the dimension series of nozzle flange(NPS>24), and i find the defualt dimension is consistent with ASME B16.47 series A, but how can i choose series B?

  • Hello,

    We can only add ASME B16.47, Series A flanges at this moment in AutoPIPE Vessel software (43.01.01.11). 

    A new feature (639854) has been logged and team is working on implementing B16.47, Series B flange in software.

    But user can modify the customization file flangeAS.xlsx to get the desired flange dimensions.

    Find the file in directory where software files are present. Generally customization file can be found at C:\Users\Public\Bentley\AutoPIPE Vessel\AutoPIPE_Vessel_43\Config.
