27、ire Image Quality Indicators Used for RadiographyAWS3AWS D1.1American Welding Society Structural WeldingCode3 DEFINITIONS3.1 FunctionA marine riser coupling provides a means of quickly con-necting and disconnecting riser joints. The coupling box orpin (depending on design type) provides a support to

28、 transmitthe weight of the suspended riser string to the riser handlingspider while running or retrieving the riser. Additionally, thecoupling may provide support for choke, kill and auxiliarylines, and load reaction for buoyancy devices.3.2 NomenclatureFor the purposes of this specification, the fo

29、llowing defini-tions apply. A comprehensive list of definitions pertaining tomarine drilling riser systems is contained in API Recom-mended Practice 16Q.3.2.1 auxiliary line:An external conduit (excludingchoke and kill lines) arranged parallel to the riser main tubefor enabling fluid flow. Examples

30、of these lines include acontrol system fluid line, a buoyancy control line, and a mudboost line.3.2.2 buoyancy:Devices added to the riser joints toreduce their submerged weight.3.2.3 choke and kill (C this isaccomplished by elastic deformation induced during makeupof the coupling.3.2.7 rated load: A

31、 nominal applied loading conditionused during coupling design, analysis, and testing based on amaximum anticipated service loading. Under the rated work-ing load, no average section stress in the riser coupling shallexceed allowable limits established in this specification.3.2.8 riser coupling box:T

32、he female coupling member.3.2.9 riser joint:A section of riser pipe having ends fittedwith a box and a pin, typically including integral choke, killand auxiliary lines.3.2.10 riser main tube:The basic pipe from which riserjoints are fabricated. 3.2.11 riser coupling pin:The male coupling member.3.2.

33、12 stress amplification factor (SAF): Equal tothe local peak alternating stress in a component (includingwelds) divided by the nominal alternating stress in the pipewall at the location of the component. This factor is used toaccount for the increase in the stresses caused by geometricstress amplifi

34、ers which occur in riser components.3.3 Design TypesCoupling designs may or may not require coupling pre-load. Coupling design types include, but are not limited to,the types defined in this section.3.3.1 breech-block coupling:A coupling which isengaged by partial rotation of one member into an inte

35、rlockwith another.3.3.2 collet-type coupling:A coupling having a slottedcylindrical element joining mating coupling members.3.3.3 dog-type coupling: A coupling having dogswhich act as wedges mechanically driven between the boxand pin for engagement.3.3.4 flange-type coupling:A coupling having twofla

36、nges joined by bolts.3.3.5 threaded coupling:A coupling having matchingthreaded members to form engagement.4 DESIGN4.1 Service ClassificationsThe coupling manufacturer shall provide design informa-tion for each coupling size and model which defines loadcapacity rating. These data are to be based on

37、design load(defined in 4.5) and verified by testing (specified in 8.2).4.1.1 SIZERiser couplings are categorized by size of the riser maintube. Riser pipe outer diameter and wall thickness (or wallthickness range) for which the coupling is designed shall bedocumented.4.1.2 RATED LOADThe rated loads

38、listed in this paragraph provide a means ofgeneral classification of coupling models based on stressmagnitude caused by applied load. To qualify for a particularrated load, neither calculated nor measured stresses in a cou-pling shall exceed the allowable stress limits of the couplingmaterial when s

39、ubjected to the rated load. The allowablematerial stresses are established in 4.6.The rated loads are as follows:a. 0.500 million pounds.b. 1.000 million pounds.c. 1.250 million pounds.d. 1.500 million pounds.e. 2.000 million pounds.f. 2.500 million pounds.4.1.3 STRESS AMPLIFICATION FACTORThe calcul

40、ated SAF values for the coupling shall be docu-mented at the pipe-to-coupling weld and at the locations ofhighest stress in the pin and box. SAF is a function of pipesize, and wall thickness. It is calculated as follows:(1)4.1.4 RATED WORKING PRESSURERiser couplings shall be designed to provide a pr

41、essure sealbetween joints. The manufacturer shall document the ratedinternal working pressure for each coupling design.4.2 Riser LoadingA drilling risers ability to resist environmental loadingdepends primarily on tension. Environmental loadingincludes the hydrodynamic forces of current and waves an

42、dthe motions induced by the floating vessels dynamicresponse to waves and wind.The determination of a risers response to the environmen-tal loading and determination of the mechanical loads actingupon and developed within the riser require specialized com-puter modeling and analysis. The general pro

43、cedure used todetermine riser system design loads and responses isdescribed in API Recommended Practice 16Q.Additional sources of applied load that are not included inthe rated load may significantly affect the coupling designand shall be included in design calculations.SNALocal peak alternating str

This support constrains the lines toapproximate the curvature of the riser

45、 pipe. Loads can beinduced on the coupling from pressure in the lines, imposeddeflections on the lines, and the weight of the lines. The man-ufacturer shall document those loads induced by choke, kill,and auxiliary lines for which the coupling has been designed.4.2.2 LOADS INDUCED BY BUOYANCYRiser c

46、ouplings may provide support for buoyancy, whichinduces loads on the couplings. The manufacturer shall docu-ment the buoyancy thrust loads for which the coupling hasbeen designed.4.2.3 LOADS INDUCED DURING HANDLINGTemporary loads are induced by suspending the riser fromthe handling tool and/or spide

47、r. The manufacturer shall docu-ment the riser handling loads for which the coupling isdesigned and how these loads are applied.4.3 Determination of Stresses by AnalysisDesign of riser couplings for static loading (4.6) and deter-mination of the Stress and Amplification Factors (4.7) requiredetailed

48、knowledge of the stress distribution in the coupling.This information shall be acquired by finite element analysisand subsequently validated by prototype strain gauge test-ing. A finite element analysis of the riser coupling must beperformed and documented. The analysis must provide accu-rate or con

49、servative peak stresses, and shall include any dele-terious effects of loss of preload from wear, friction, andmanufacturing tolerances. Suggestions for the analysis can befound in Appendix A. The following shall be documentedand included in the analysis: a. Hardware and software used to perform the analysis.b. Grid size.c. Applied loads.d. Preload losses. e. Material considerations.4.4 Stress Distribution Verification TestAfter completion of the design studies, a prototype (
