Both ends of the model are "fixed," except that one end
is free axially so that longitudinal pressure stresses
may be developed in the geometry.
Stresses ARE nodally AVERAGED.
No weld dimensions have been given for the nozzle
connection to the shell. This will produce conservative
results for external loads and may tend to produce more
realistic inside surface pressure stresses.

The above stress intensification factors are to be used


in a beam-type analysis of the piping system. Inplane,

Outplane and Torsional sif's should be used with the


matching branch pipe whose diameter and thickness is given
below. The axial sif should be used to intensify the
axial stress in the branch pipe calculated by F/A. The
pressure sif should be used to intensify the nominal
pressure stress in the PARENT or HEADER, calculated
from PD/2T.

NOTES:
1) Maximum Individual Occuring Loads are the maximum
allowed values of the respective loads if all other
load components are zero, i.e. the listed axial force
may be applied if the inplane, outplane and torsional
moments, and the pressure are zero.
2) The Conservative Allowable Simultaneous loads are
the maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously.
A conservative stress combination equation is used
that typically produces stresses within 50-70% of the
allowable stress.
3) The Realistic Allowable Simultaneous loads are the
maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously. A
more realistic stress combination equation is used
based on experience at Paulin Research. Stresses are
typically produced within 80-105% of the allowable.
4) Secondary allowable loads are limits for expansion
and operating piping loads.
5) Primary allowable loads are limits for weight,
primary and sustained type piping loads.

Both ends of the model are "fixed," except that one end
is free axially so that longitudinal pressure stresses
may be developed in the geometry.
Stresses ARE nodally AVERAGED.
No weld dimensions have been given for the nozzle
connection to the shell. This will produce conservative
results for external loads and may tend to produce more
realistic inside surface pressure stresses.
No pad weld dimensions have been given for the pad
connection to the shell. Few correlations have been
performed to investigate the sensitivity of peak stresses
to this value. Reasonable lengths have been assumed.

in a beam-type analysis of the piping system. Inplane,
Outplane and Torsional sif's should be used with the
matching branch pipe whose diameter and thickness is given
below. The axial sif should be used to intensify the
axial stress in the branch pipe calculated by F/A. The
pressure sif should be used to intensify the nominal
pressure stress in the PARENT or HEADER, calculated
from PD/2T.

NOTES:
1) Maximum Individual Occuring Loads are the maximum
allowed values of the respective loads if all other
load components are zero, i.e. the listed axial force
may be applied if the inplane, outplane and torsional
moments, and the pressure are zero.
2) The Conservative Allowable Simultaneous loads are
the maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously.
A conservative stress combination equation is used
that typically produces stresses within 50-70% of the
allowable stress.
3) The Realistic Allowable Simultaneous loads are the
maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously. A
more realistic stress combination equation is used
based on experience at Paulin Research. Stresses are
typically produced within 80-105% of the allowable.
4) Secondary allowable loads are limits for expansion
and operating piping loads.
5) Primary allowable loads are limits for weight,
primary and sustained type piping loads.

Both ends of the model are "fixed," except that one end
is free axially so that longitudinal pressure stresses
may be developed in the geometry.
Stresses ARE nodally AVERAGED.
No weld dimensions have been given for the nozzle
connection to the shell. This will produce conservative
results for external loads and may tend to produce more
realistic inside surface pressure stresses.

in a beam-type analysis of the piping system. Inplane,
Outplane and Torsional sif's should be used with the
matching branch pipe whose diameter and thickness is given
below. The axial sif should be used to intensify the
axial stress in the branch pipe calculated by F/A. The
pressure sif should be used to intensify the nominal
pressure stress in the PARENT or HEADER, calculated
from PD/2T.

NOTES:
1) Maximum Individual Occuring Loads are the maximum
allowed values of the respective loads if all other
load components are zero, i.e. the listed axial force
may be applied if the inplane, outplane and torsional
moments, and the pressure are zero.
2) The Conservative Allowable Simultaneous loads are
the maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously.
A conservative stress combination equation is used
that typically produces stresses within 50-70% of the
allowable stress.
3) The Realistic Allowable Simultaneous loads are the
maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously. A
more realistic stress combination equation is used
based on experience at Paulin Research. Stresses are
typically produced within 80-105% of the allowable.
4) Secondary allowable loads are limits for expansion
and operating piping loads.
5) Primary allowable loads are limits for weight,
primary and sustained type piping loads.

Both ends of the model are "fixed," except that one end
is free axially so that longitudinal pressure stresses
may be developed in the geometry.
Stresses ARE nodally AVERAGED.
No weld dimensions have been given for the nozzle
connection to the shell. This will produce conservative
results for external loads and may tend to produce more
realistic inside surface pressure stresses.
No pad weld dimensions have been given for the pad
connection to the shell. Few correlations have been
performed to investigate the sensitivity of peak stresses
to this value. Reasonable lengths have been assumed.

The above stress intensification factors are to be used


in a beam-type analysis of the piping system. Inplane,
Outplane and Torsional sif's should be used with the
matching branch pipe whose diameter and thickness is given
below. The axial sif should be used to intensify the
axial stress in the branch pipe calculated by F/A. The
pressure sif should be used to intensify the nominal
pressure stress in the PARENT or HEADER, calculated
from PD/2T.

NOTES:
1) Maximum Individual Occuring Loads are the maximum
allowed values of the respective loads if all other
load components are zero, i.e. the listed axial force
may be applied if the inplane, outplane and torsional
moments, and the pressure are zero.
2) The Conservative Allowable Simultaneous loads are
the maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously.
A conservative stress combination equation is used
that typically produces stresses within 50-70% of the
allowable stress.
3) The Realistic Allowable Simultaneous loads are the
maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously. A
more realistic stress combination equation is used
based on experience at Paulin Research. Stresses are
typically produced within 80-105% of the allowable.
4) Secondary allowable loads are limits for expansion
and operating piping loads.
5) Primary allowable loads are limits for weight,
primary and sustained type piping loads.

Flexibilities
