PV Elite design Hub Type Self Reinforced Nozzle (SRN) with LIP

[M L Kuselan]

Hi,
I want to design a Self Reinforced Nozzle with Lip in PV Elite and the Lip width is 50mm on each side. I want to make Lip thickness higher than the shell thickness.

When Hub Type Self Reinforcing type nozzle is selected, we can input Hub Thickness, Hub Height and Bevel Height.
How to give inputs for Lip width and Lip thickness in PV Elite.

Please help me in this. Thanks.

Check local shell thk. on the bottom right: there you can add the local shell thickness to be considered for the nozzle calculation which is your lip thickness.

For the width of the lip, I would limit the material contributing to nozzle reinforcement by adding your lip outside diameter as limits [ diameter on the bottom left.

Hope this helps
