WRC 297 Limitations
WRC 297 Limitations
(OP)
I am working on a nozzle load calculation on a small pressure vessel. The nozzles are 2" pipe. As I look at paragraph 3.2 in WRC 297, there is a statement that for thin-shell theory to be valid, d/t must be greater than 20. That seems to prevent this bulletin from being used for small nozzles. What other methods are applicable for calculating stress in nozzle/shell joints for small nozzles?
