Tangential, Tilted and Hillside Nozzle Design
Due to process and pipe routing considerations, nozzles on pressure vessels and heat exchangers are frequently placed in non-radial orientations. These non-radial or hillside nozzle to vessel intersections create obround openings which require additional [...]
Pressure Vessel Component Design With COMPRESS
Simple Pressure Vessel Component Design COMPRESS does not require you to model an entire pressure vessel to design or rate individual components. This capability is useful when investigating a pressure vessel component [...]
Check Nozzle Loads With WRC 537, WRC 107
Check Piping Loads Using WRC 107, WRC 537 Process piping imposes external loads on vessel and exchanger nozzles that must be accounted for (see ASME VIII-1, UG-22). Stresses on pressure vessel nozzles [...]
