    translate moment from shell/nozzle junction to flange

    I have axial load(tensile/compressive) and longitudinal and circumferential bending moments at nozzle/shell intersection. Axial load is along centerline of nozzle, circumferential and longitudinal are along tangential axes at shell. I need to check flange on a nozzle and for that the loads need...

    Difference between Response Spectrum Method and IS:1893 RSM

    Could someone please highlight the difference between Response Spectrum Method and IS:1893 RSM (2002)? In particular, I am interested in how IS:1893-2002 could be alternatively modeled using Response Spectrum Method. Thank you in advance. Regards, s1111

    on the datum

    Hello, I noticed that when modeling compress the set datum offset, accounts for straight flange length. Could you thorw more light on the functioning of the datum. Thanks in advacen for your comments. s1111

    On trunion design

    Greetings group, When designing a trunion, if there is overstress in the trunion near shell (branch at junction), should the pad thickness be increased or should the pipe thickness be increased. From my understanding it should be the pipe whose thickness should be increased, and it should be...

    inserting components in Compress

    I have a vessel with upper shell and upper shell. I wish to break it down to 15 cylinders of smaller size. What is the fastest way of doing it without redesigning it? I tried insert and it shows the insert after, but it doesn't insert when I select my shell. Is there may be a split option...

    Trunnion Lifting calcs

    Hello, I have just started freshly with pressure vessels and am slowly learning it. Could someone please tell me what calculations are required for a tall vertical vessel lift using 2 trunnion w/ 1 tailing lug and which standards to follow? Thanks
