This new edition brings together in one source the formulas and technical data that previously had to be gathered from many scattered sources. The mathematical complexity of refinery, petrochemical, and power-plant piping design requires the use of many highly sophisticated computer programs, all of which require extensive input. The tables in this handbook not only provide these necessary input data but also help check the accuracy of the program output, eliminate interpolation, and reduce expensive ''engineering time''. New Material in this second edition covers piping branch reinforcements and stiffness coefficients for nozzles on cylindrical vessels. In addition, it includes the latest ANSI Piping Codes B31.1(1983) and B31.3(1984).
