Hello,

I am having trouble modeling a boot on a horizontal vessel. I attached the cylindrical section at a nozzle but the vessel has a conical reducer to a nozzle at the the bottom of the boot. Does anyone have any advise on how to model this correctly in Compress?

Thank you.

I can't seem to find a way to do this. You may have to model this using two different files in order to provide all the calcs, treating the boot as the entire vessel in the second file. I do this all the time for non-typical heat exchanger configurations.

Maybe someone else has a better solution.
