Conclusion

Maximum stress is 4.030e+008N/m^2 in Node: 61929

Materialaterial is A 487 – 60k with yield strength SY = 4.14e+008 N/m^2

Results:

Maximum stress (4.030e+008N/m^2) < Yield strength (4.14e+008 N/m^2) .

Maximum displacement is 2.452e+001mm in Node: 7846

Can conclude that the 5 1/16 -3000 psi High Temperature Expanding Gate Valve Body resists to the test
pressure.
