&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:30px;"&gt;I have checked &amp;quot;impact tested&amp;quot; under materials tab&amp;nbsp;for the components&amp;nbsp;and mentioned the temperature but still I get an error even&amp;nbsp;when the impact test temperature that I have set&amp;nbsp;is less than the requested temperature, why?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color:#008000;color:#ffffff;font-size:150%;"&gt;Answer:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Let&amp;#39;s explain the question first:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;The impact test requested temperature is set in the Operating Conditions tab as follows eg. -45C&amp;nbsp;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/71251.1.png"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/71251.1.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;In the nozzle standard flange and materials tab, the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; option has been checked and the impact test temperature mentioned to be -45C.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/26880.2.png"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/26880.2.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Now when the calculations are performed why is the impact test error reported as follows:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/4137.3.png"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/4137.3.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/6.jpg"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/6.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;The answer is AutoPIPE Vessel calculates the minimum temperature without&amp;nbsp;impact test for all components and would issue MDMT error if that is found to be above the requested MDMT, irrespective of whether or not the user has checked the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; field for that component or not.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;In the above example, if&amp;nbsp;the impact tested field is unchecked and the temperature removed from the nozzle standard flange and&amp;nbsp;material tab, then the minimum calculated&amp;nbsp;temperature which would not require impact test for the nozzle is calculated to be -20C which is more than the requested MDMT (-45C).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Hence the error is issued in the first case even when the user checks &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/382011.4.png"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/382011.4.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:120px;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/8666.5.png"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/8666.5.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Q. I have checked &amp;quot;impact tested&amp;quot; under materials tab&amp;nbsp;for the components&amp;nbsp;and mentioned the temperature but still I get an error even&amp;nbsp;when the impact test temperature that I have set&amp;nbsp;is less than the requested temperature, why?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the nozzle standard flange and materials tab, the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; option has been checked and the impact test temperature mentioned to be -45C.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now when the calculations are performed why is the impact test error reported as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The answer is AutoPIPE Vessel calculates the minimum temperature without&amp;nbsp;impact test for all components and would issue MDMT error if that is found to be above the requested MDMT, irrespective of whether or not the user has checked the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; field for that component or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the above example, if&amp;nbsp;the impact tested field is unchecked and the temperature removed from the nozzle standard flange and&amp;nbsp;material tab, then the minimum calculated&amp;nbsp;temperature which would not require impact test for the nozzle is calculated to be -20C which is more than the requested MDMT (-45C).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hence the error is issued in the first case even when the user checks &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Q. I have checked &amp;quot;impact tested&amp;quot; under materials tab&amp;nbsp;for the components&amp;nbsp;and mentioned the temperature but still I get an error even&amp;nbsp;when the impact test temperature that I have set&amp;nbsp;is less than the requested temperature, why?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ans: Let&amp;#39;s explain the question first:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The impact test requested temperature is set in the Operating Conditions tab as follows eg. -45C&amp;nbsp;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/71251.1.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/71251.1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the nozzle materials tab, the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; option has been checked and the impact test temperature mentioned to be -45C.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/26880.2.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/26880.2.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now when the calculations are performed why is the impact test error reported as follows:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/4137.3.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/4137.3.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The answer is AutoPIPE Vessel calculates the minimum temperature without&amp;nbsp;impact test for all components and would issue MDMT error if that is found to be above the requested MDMT, irrespective of whether or not the user has checked the &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot; field for that component or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the above example, if&amp;nbsp;the impact tested field is unchecked and the temperature removed from the nozzle material tab, then the minimum calculated&amp;nbsp;temperature which would not require impact test for the nozzle is calculated to be -20C which is more than the requested MDMT (-45C).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hence the error is issued in the first case even when the user checks &amp;quot;Impact Tested&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/382011.4.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/382011.4.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/8666.5.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/720x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/8666.5.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
