Nozzle design for FRP tanks
Nozzle design for FRP tanks
(OP)
For steel vessel we refer to WRC107, but there is nothing for FRP tanks.
I need to define allowable loads ( forces and moment ) acting on a nozzle.
I will appreciate any suggestion and help.
Manu thanks in advance.

I believe to define allowable loads I shall perform a finite element analysis.
