INTELLIJOINT SOFTWARE
Solve Flanged Connection Leakage Issues
Flanged connection leakage is an expensive problem, but it need not be accepted as part of plant operation and the cost of doing business.
IntelliJoint, a cloud-based software, is designed to reduce maintenance expenditure and improve safety. Use IntelliJoint as a repository for all critical bolted flanged joint data and leakage solutions for your plant, putting everything in one place for a one-stop solution.
Experience IntelliJoint for yourself.
Data Organization
Robust data organization capabilities allow you to assign various “tags” to joints. You can tag a piping joint as “outlet piping” and also as “fall turn around” or “high-priority”.
Joint Optimization Tool
IntelliJoint uses the joint component data to perform a variety of optimizations, including:
- Performance comparison of various gasket styles or manufacturers
- Identifying best gasket for specific applications and optimizing gasket dimensions
- Estimating optimal assembly bolt stress that will provide adequate sealing while avoiding damage to the joint components
- Visualizing gasket stress losses due to internal pressure, thermal gradients, and creep relaxation
- Troubleshooting existing gasket configurations and determining the effectiveness of proposed leak fixes
IntelliJoint is available on the eec platform as an individual module or can be combined with other cloud tools for expanded analysis capabilities.

Analysis of Piping Surge Events
Authors: Bob Davis, P.E., Consulting Engineer II; Curtis Koether, P.E., Senior Engineer II
Surge events in piping systems can lead to severe displacements, loud noises, and operational challenges. Using a case study, this article highlights the factors behind surge events, including rapid changes in liquid velocity and pressure, and how forces generated during these transient events can impact piping systems. The authors discuss how a few targeted support modifications effectively resolved these issues without resorting to costly system overhauls or potentially problematic specialty equipment.
SIMFLEX-IV: A Modern Pipe Stress Engineering Solution
Authors: Donald L. Brown, Ph.D., Consulting Researcher I; Edrissa Gassama, Ph.D., Senior Researcher II; Daniel Spring, Ph.D., Group Head Consulting Researcher I
SIMFLEX-IV, the latest update to E2G’s cloud-based piping stress analysis software, will help you prevent potential failures by improving the structural integrity of piping systems and supporting structures. In a single run, you will be able to assess sustained, occasional, and displacement stresses at every data point throughout the piping system. This article introduces you to fast and easy ways to integrate advanced static and dynamic piping stress analysis into your daily workflow.
