Emerson Process Management announced it has introduced an online thermowell calculation tool that incorporates the new ASME PTC 19.3 TW standard. Emerson is the first to make available an online tool offering a more automated approach to thermowell calculation as opposed to the traditional way of utilizing spreadsheets.
In addition to the tool, the web site has a link to an R21 Report request form for official evaluations.
A video and white paper are also available on the web site that explains the new ASME PTC 19.3 TW standard. Enhancements in the new standards and thermowell calculation tool include different types of stem profiles, more accurate natural frequency equations, and a calculated Strouhal number. The new standard also provides natural frequency correction factors that take into account different components of the thermowell such as the mounting style and temperature sensor mass.
