Vacancy Design Piping Engineer
ToMach Engineering - Brussel
As a Design Piping Engineer you are an important link between the problem and the solution. You make innovation a reality. You raise engineering to a higher level.
What do you tell your friends about what you do at work?
I manage the various aspects of structural integrity of mechanical components related to ASME Section III code for the construction/operation of existing or new Nuclear power plants.
What your tasks will be.
- Supervise all the calculations of the ASME III mechanical and piping components and including Class 1, 2 & 3 components.
- Use and guide others in Finite-Elements Studies (SYSTUS, ANSYS or/and PIPESTRESS code) for thermal and pressure fatigue evaluation of mechanical and piping components with respect to ASME code.
- Be familiar with the use of the ASME III code and able to lead others in its application.
- Be aware of all the different analyses: mechanical, thermal and pressure transients applicable to Class 1 mechanical and piping components of each Belgian nuclear units.
- Help our Client to safety restart their nuclear units through fast and judicious justification for continuation in case of alteration of the structural integrity of an ASME component.
- Take charge of the invitation to tender, the technical and economical comparison between bids; the awarding of contracts, the review of external studies.
- Conduct the technical and commercial follow up of the contracts, including interfaces management.
- Write component technical specifications (performances, scope of supply and limits of supply definition, design requirements, applicable ASME III criteria to meet) Comply with and enforce compliance with the Health/Safety guidelines set out in the Project Safety Plan.
Your profile.
- Mechanical or Civil Engineer with several years of experience in structural analysis and design.
- Experience in stress and fatigue analysis of pressure vessels (piping pumps, tanks, heat exchanges...).
- Experienced in general purpose Finite Element (FE) codes such as PipeStress, Beamstress, Ansys, Systus... for piping applications.
- Good knowledge of the mechanical properties of different steels and alloy steels used in this topic.
- Several years’ experience in application of pressure vessel codes such as ASME III, ASME VIII, RCC-M,CODAP, DIN, KTA...
- Experienced in thermal fatigue (elastic or plastic) structural analysis and evaluation of the heat transfer coefficients in water, in steam...
- Experienced to evaluate by FE calculation stresses for static loads or dynamic loads, in case of linear or non-linear analysis.
- Able to communicate in French or Dutch and English.
