Allowable Loads/Moments on Tee Joint
Allowable Loads/Moments on Tee Joint
(OP)
Hi :
For use in a 16in pressure vessel, I am trying to calculate the allowable nozzle loads on a 16in Tee.
Can someone tell me how do I calculate the allowable loads per ASME pressure vessel code ?
Thanks

So... whacha gonna model? Maybe take a piping design approach using SIF's etc. But an FEA without measured dimensions might be meaningless.

Till now what I have done is modelled two intersecting cylinder of 16in. diameter at right angles to each other.
This result in a sort of singularity at the intersection. I do not know how to remove this singularity.
How do I use Piping design approach on tee joint?
I m really struck on this calculation and management is not too happy with that.
