SADDLES ON HEMISPHERICAL HEADS
SADDLES ON HEMISPHERICAL HEADS
(OP)
We have a vessel 2400 mm ID with hemispherical heads, shell length is only 756 mm. Vessel is saddle supported and saddle is located on each head so there are two saddles. COMPRESS does not permit to locate saddle on the head.
Any idea how can I design the saddles in this case and how can local stresses be checked at the attachment point of saddles with heads?
