Pipe Thickness Design Calculation 1500 MM

This document contains calculations to determine the minimum required thickness of a 60-inch nominal diameter pipe made of API 5L Grade X42 steel operating at 247 psig and 120 degrees Fahrenheit. The pressure design thickness is calculated to be 9.29 mm. Adding 1.6 mm for allowances gives a minimum required thickness of 10.89 mm. Applying the manufacturer's 12.5% minus tolerance yields a final minimum required thickness of 12.45 mm. A nominal thickness of 15 mm is selected.
