    Nozzle's Stiffness

    Hi all, First of all, excuse me if this is not the correct forum where to post this thread, at least it has something to do with it. I have to introduce a vessel's nozzle stiffness into the stress analysis software. I am using CAESAR II 4.50. I have radial displacement stiffness and...

    Strange forces on restraints

    Thank you, PhilEduard. Do you think that there is another answer to my problem? I made this question to COADE staff few days ago and they replied me in this way of friction forces. Anyway, I didn't know there were forums at COADE site, I have just now get registered so in the future I will...

    Stress at nozzle. WRC107

    Hi all, I'm with a pipe line (16'', CS) that serves steam to three vessels. I have done the stress analysis and everything is OK. But if I do a WRC107 analysis at the nozzles of the vessels, problems arise: I have four hypothesis, 1. The three vessels operating, and so all hot. 2, 3 and 4...

    WRC 107. Stress at nozzle vessel

    Strange forces on restraints

    The point was that if you consider a friction coefficient (0.3 in my case), frictional forces arise in both horizontal axes (X and Z) independent of the restraints you consider. So, if I have a non restrained direction, i.g. X, I get as result a displacement and a reaction. The force at the...

    Strange forces on restraints

    ApC2Kp, > The restraint report will show forces at only the nodes with restraints or displacement reactions. This is not what appear in my line as I have forces on not restrained directions. But I think you are right and this is a question of friction. In fact, I'm introducing a 0.3...

    Strange forces on restraints

    Superpiper, I am not using C-nodes at the moment, so the answer has to go by other way. The reactions are lower than the real one, but thet exist. For example, in a node restrained in X-Y appear the 3 reactions (X, Y and Z), but the Z component is much lower than the X one (10% of the other...

    Strange forces on restraints

    Hi all, I am using CaesarII software to analyze stress on a steam piping system. I am astonished because the results show forces on nodes where I am not putting restraints, and it also show displacements at this same nodes (and I'm not using gaps). This is the first time I see something...
