TRANSPORTATION CASE
B31.3 Stresses, Nozzle & Restraint Loads

WNC+D1+D2+D3+U1+U2+U3(SUS)

SLUG CASE
This case is similar to Normal case
with added forces. The added forces
are Slug forces at pipe elbows.

SURGE CASE
This case is also similar to Normal
case with added forces. The added
forces are Surge forces at pipe elbows.
If the system has to be designed for
the effect of surge at one elbow at a
time, then as many number of cases as
the number of elbows in the system
have to be analysed to determine the
worst loads.
