Hi,

I have a list of nozzle load (attached file) need to apply to the software but software input data is using

Pr(N)
Mc(N-m)
Vc(N)
ML(N-m)
VL(N)
Mt(N-m)

Can help me determine which nozzle load data I need to input in?

Thank
C.Min

The nozzle loading data is

Fx(N) - 56757
Fy(N) - 9989
Fz(N) - 1568
Mx(N.m) - 4150
My(N.m) - 24078
Mz(N.m) - (-14669)

You're going to need a sketch showing the orientation of the nozzle with respect to the coordinate system used for the nozzle loads.
 
That's not a particularly helpful sketch. What's the type of vessel (sphere or cylinder), and what's the orientation of the vessel?

In general, you will need to perform a force/moment transformation from the defined XYZ system to one that oriented with the nozzle. The nomenclature appears to align with what's in WRC 107/537, either Figure 1 or 2 (depending on whether you have a sphere or cylinder).
