Nozzle Load on FULL VACUUM Vessel
Nozzle Load on FULL VACUUM Vessel
(OP)
How do you check the nozzle loads using WRC 197 / 297 for nozzles on a vessel operating at Full Vacuum?
The worst case would be a radial (axial load) pushing into the vessel.
How is the effect of vacuum taken into account?

If you have a vessel with vacuum, designed for that vacuum, and you apply an inward nozzle load to it, the nozzle load could act with the vacuum load to buckle the vessel. And that type of failure is not anticipated in the usual nozzle stress calculations.
