NozzlePRO is a component analysis tool for pressure vessels. This tool brings the accuracy of FEA to general vessel design and analysis. NozzlePRO's user-friendly interface simplifies input and allows novice users to quickly analyze pressure components with a high degree of accuracy.

Evaluate nozzles, saddles, pipe shoes and clips on shell or heads. Modeled head types include:

• Conical
• Dished
• Elliptical
• Spherical

Inputs include thermal, weight, operating, occasional, pressure, wind and earthquake loads as well as material and nozzle orientation.

• NozzlePRO technology is a significant improvement over the limitations inherent in WRC 107/297 methods
• Automated nozzle calculations: allowable loads, flexibility factors and stress intensification factors
• Automatic fatigue calculations for piping and pressure vessel Codes
• Extend use of piping programs beyond B31 flexibility and SIF limits on D/T (B31.3, Appendix D)
• Fatigue analysis includes a calculation for maximum allowed cycles and includes fatigue analysis according to BS5500, EN13445, ASME and WRC 474
• Improve beam analysis in piping programs using flexibility factors (WRC 329)
• Interface with Mat Pro allows comprehensive ASME material property lookup
• Nozzle reinforcements: barrel and pad reinforced
• Animated graphics assist Engineers with visualizing stresses and deflections
• Saddle wizard with pipe shoe options for repads, fluid head, tapered saddles and user controlled boundary conditions
• State and transient heat transfer analysis of selected head models
• Tabular and graphical reports are produced in HTML
