I want to calculate what is the maximum axial force (to yield point) between two steel pipes (with relative large diameter, for example 4") that are connected with pipe thread with a pipe coupling. And to compare the results for the BSPP thread and the NPT. No need for tightness or pressure sealing. Could you help? |

First, you need to determine the thread stress areas of the threades of interest. Then the number threads and total amount of thread stress area. The rest is simply force/area. |

Thank you for your answer.
You mean to calculate as if it was a screw thread? Is there not any special consideration for pipe thread (for example, the quality of the thread or the ovality of the pipe)? Well, I guess I could consider such parameters. Another question: Is there any concentration factor for the stress on the root of the pipe thread? |
