Overview

Experimental assessment of tightening procedures improves gasket contact stress in bolted connections, suggesting better efficiency with multiple tools.

Key Points

  • The study evaluates tightening procedures for bolted flange connections, improving gasket contact stress significantly.
  • In the experiment, multiple tools were used to achieve higher gasket contact stress, with the tensioner procedure being the most effective.
  • A finite element method (FEM) was utilized to calculate gasket contact stress across various tightening methods tested.
  • The findings highlight the need for multiple tightening passes to achieve high axial bolt loads while ensuring adequate gasket contact.
