Hello,

We are designing a pretty typical horizontal cylindrical vessel. It has nozzles all over, and is sitting on saddles.

Two of the nozzles will be used to connect an internal heating coil with a different design pressure.

Vessel design pressure: ~300kPa.
The coil design pressure: ~1400kPa.

The design of the area of reinforcement calculation should be based on the vessel design pressure, but the nozzle itself should be designed for the coil design pressure.

I can't find a way to do this in Compress, am I missing something?

Thanks,
Marty
