Horizontal Vessel Stress Calculations : Operating Case
Note: Wear Pad Width (1200.00) is less than 1.56*sqrt(rm*t)

Minimum Thickness of Baseplate per Moss :

= ( 3 * ( Q + Saddle_Wt ) * BasePlateWidth / ( 4 * BasePlateLength *
AllStress ))
= ( 3 * (418273 + 7085 ) * 1150.00 / ( 4 * 3700.000 * 1406.140 ))

Calculation of Axial Load, Intermediate Values and Compressive Stress

Effective Baseplate Length [e]:

= ( Bplen - Clearance ) / ( Nribs - 1)
= ( 3700.0000 - 25.4 ) / ( 8 - 1 ) = 524.9429 mm.
Baseplate Pressure Area [Ap]:
= e * Bpwid / 2
= 524.9429 * 1150.0000 / 2 = 0.3E+06 sq.mm.
Axial Load [P]:
= Ap * Bp
= 301860.9 * 0.10 = 29671.6 KG
Area of the Rib and Web [Ar]:
= ( Bpwid - Clearance - Webtk ) * Ribtk + e/2 * Webtk
= ( 1150.000 - 25.4 - 30.000 ) * 30.000 + 524.9429 /2 * 30.000
= 40714.668 sq.mm.
Compressive Stress [Sc]:
= P/Ar
= 29671.6 / 40714.6680 = 72.8962 KG/CM2
