Color code stresses / No color coding
Displays or removes the color coded stress (or stress ratio) contour in the Graphics window. To display a color coded contour, place the yellow highlight on the type of stress you want to see graphically, for example, on Expansion stress. Then, select Color code stresses. Next, click on Show stresses or stress ratios button on the toolbar. The Graphics window will show the color coded contour plot.
For Jacketed piping, the color coded contour plot shown is for the core pipe. You can also view the stress contour plot for the jacket piping using the command “Show Jacket stresses /Ratios” as shown in the graphics below.
When you select No color coding, numeric values for stresses or stress ratios are shown (see next image).
