Zick Analysis Saddle

Zick Analysis Saddle

Zick Analysis Saddle

(OP)
hi all,

Can somebody explain to me why in PV-Elite calculation for saddle stress analysis is as per ASME VIII Div 2. The pressure vessel is designed as per code Div 1.

RE: Zick Analysis Saddle

Because you selected to do so. You can also select the Zick method.

RE: Zick Analysis Saddle

I think Mr. Akulabest want's to know, why ASME Sec. VIII Div. 1 is not talking about saddle calculation? This is the reason, saddle calculation are being done as per ASME Sec. VIII Div. 2 (based on the Zick method)in PV-Elite, even though he is designing as per Div 1.

RE: Zick Analysis Saddle

Zick method is an independent method of calculating saddle stress, which is included in div II.
