So Let’s begin with details and look at various sections of the article. IMPORTANT LINKS Video Details Enroll Now IMPORTANT LINKS What are you going to learn in this piping coursePiping Engineering is a specialized discipline of Mechanical Engineering which covers the design of piping and layout of equipment and process units in chemical, petrochemical, or hydrocarbon facilities.This course covers nearly all the important sections of Piping Engineering which comprises ofPiping LayoutPiping Materials & TestingPiping Stress AnalysisAll the sections have been covered in the form recorded lectures. 200+ lectures have been included to cover all the major and critical areas of Piping Engineering. Content is created and published by Mr. Atul Singla (Click on the link to know more) and all the stress analysis related content has been prepared by one of the friends Mr. Anup Dey.(Click on the link to know more)Let’s check out various topics which have been covered in above 4 sections.Section-1: Basics of Piping Engineering: (9 Hours)This section talks about basics of process industry, where various topics have been organized in such a way that anyone can understand what is process industry and how it works. In this section majorly, following topics are coveredEnergy SectorOil and gas IndustryCrude Oil ProcessingRefinery vs Petro-ChemicalWhat is Piping EngineeringEngineering OrganizationPiping disciplineVarious Disciplines & stakeholdersHow piping Department WorksPiping Systems for BeginnersLife Cycle of Oil & Gas projectsLife Cycle PhasesLife Cycle Stages of Oil & GasLife Cycle InitiationLife Cycle planning & ExecutionLife Cycle ClosingComponents of Piping EngineeringPipe, Valves & FlangesStrainers & Steam trapsCodes & StandardsIntroduction to StdsDiff 31.1 & 31.3ASME & API StandardsDimensional StandardsMaterial StandardsValve design StandardsPipe thicknessPainting & insulationPiping Deliverables & Non-DeliverablesManhour EstimationSection-2: Piping Materials & Testing (6.5 hours)In this sections various ASTM standards have been discussed in detail, starting from basics of metallurgy. Various Lattice structures have been discussed so that the actual usage in industry can be understood. Moreover, chemical & mechanical properties of various types of steels are discussed in length. anyone who goes through these details will be able to understand and implements the facts in live projects. Following sections have been discussed in detail:Basics of MetallurgyUnderstanding FCC & BCC structures-VoidsSlips & DislocationsBehavior of CarbonVarious ASTM Standards forCarbon SteelStainless SteelLTCS MaterialAlloy SteelInspection, Testing & MarkingMetallurgical Test IndexDestructive TestsNon-Destructive testing TypesPipe inspection & MarkingImpact testingSection-3: Piping Layouts (13 Hours)Piping layout is one of most important section of Piping Engineering, because it is the only department who take inputs from nearly all the disciplines and outputs from layout department is utilized by almost all the other disciplines. Piping Layout department has to produce maximum number of deliverables which can make piping engineer’s life miserable, if not planned well. Following topics have been covered so that after getting practical knowledge same could implemented in live projects.Interaction with Process DepartmentDesign Basis3D modelLayout DevelopmentPlot planPump PipingPiperack PipingExchanger pipingCompressor PipingColumn pipingTank Farm LayoutUnderground PipingModel reviewsMaterial Take-offPiping General arrangement DrawingsNozzle orientationsIsometricsSection-4: Piping Stress Analysis (14 hours)Stress analysis is an integral part of Piping engineering which decides the flexibility of critical & non-critical piping systems. Caesar II is used in most of the cases to perform the stress analysis. In this section, not only Basics of stress analysis are explained but how to perform the analysis in CAESAR II is explained in detail. Moreover, this section talks about actual stress analysis for various vessels & equipment in details.
