Thanks Tom and JStephen for the help.
Yes, the nozzle is coming out the end of the cone (at the 'tip')
It seems then that I treat the nozzle like it was just a smaller cylindrical section of the vessel and check the allowable loads accordingly.
I am trying to check the loads on a nozzle which is coming out of the cone-shaped bottom of a vertical vessel. Due to this geometry, WRC107 does not seem applicable.
AS1210 Section 3.7 deals with 'cylindrical or spherical shells or cylindrical or spherical parts of vessels subject to internal...
Can someone tell me if pressure oscillations of the fluid being conveyed in a pipeline (like in slug flow) will induce vibrations of the line? (non-breathing that is)
thanks

Wouldn't both be important?
If the velocity of the slugs and their length are assumed to be constant, then I was hoping to model the force due to momentum change as a short pulse over the duration of each arriving slug (ie. a force occuring at a constant time interval).
This force (at the...
I was hoping someone could give me some information regarding the modelling of pipe vibration due to slug flow. It seems that there would be two main mechanisms of vibration.
Firstly simply from the momentum change of the slugs at the pipe bends etc. Secondly from the "saw-tooth"...
