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
