Re tigy post 2007 on ASME VIII Div 1 Appendix 13 :- Circular vessel with diametrical staying member.
Also spreadsheet pdf on calculation sheet Rev 000c

Can anyone suggest modifications to formulae that would satisfy code approval and acceptance of thicknesses chosen, where

A)Divider plate is off vessel centreline.
B)Adding a second divider plate also off centre by a different amount, or placed square to first divider, producing a three chamber vessel?
We are in-fact producing 2in1 or 3in1 vessels for stream turndown, utilising minimum floor space. This enables nest of internal two phase separators to run at peak 100% efficiency during various % turndown streams.

Hope this has not caused to much confusion!
I'm thinking Dividers On vessel centreline are worst case, so placing off centre would give conservative results by code formulae?
