General Notes for the above table:
The cut length is the outside projection + inside projection + drop + in-plane shell
thickness. This value does not include weld gaps, nor does it account for shrinkage.
In the case of oblique nozzles, the outside diameter must be increased. The re-pad width
around the nozzle is calculated as follows:
Width of Pad = (Pad Outside Dia. (per above) - Nozzle Outside Dia.)/2
For hub nozzles, the thickness and diameter shown are those of the smaller and thinner section.

PV Elite performs all calculations internally in Imperial Units
to remain compliant with the ASME Code and any built in assumptions
in the ASME Code formulas. The finalized results are reflected to show
the set of selected units for this analysis.
The ASME Code Section VIII Division 1 does not explicitly require stresses on elements to be
computed under test conditions. Please see interpretation VIII-1-10-12 for more information.
PV Elite also computes weight due to test fluid and uses the weight in various calculations such as
saddle and leg loads. PV Elite also computes static pressure due to operating and test liquids. The
static pressure is used in conjunction with the design and test pressures to determine a total
pressure in the determination of required thickness, MAWP etc. This ensures compliance with
UG-22 requirements.

PV Elite includes an 1/8 inch (3.175mm) raised face and gasket thicknesses for girth
flanges and tubesheet thicknesses where applicable in the Tangent to Tangent length calculation.
The calculated dimensions are based on the given element lengths. Due to variability in
manufacturing (weld gaps etc.), the Tangent to Tangent length may not be exact.

= P*R/(Sv*E-0.6*P) per UG-27 (c)(1)
= 28*304/(1174*1-0.6*28)
= 7.3452 mm
Reqd thk per UG-37(a) of Nozzle Wall, trn [Int. Press]
= P*R/(Sn*E-0.6*P) per UG-27 (c)(1)
= 28*23/(1174*1-0.6*28)

UG-40, Limits of Reinforcement: [Internal Pressure]
Parallel to Vessel Wall (Diameter Limit) Dl 92.0996 mm
Parallel to Vessel Wall, opening length d 46.0498 mm
Normal to Vessel Wall (Thickness Limit), no pad Tlnp 17.8440 mm
Taking a UG-36(c)(3)(a) exemption for nozzle: C.
This calculation is valid for nozzles that meet all the requirements of
paragraph UG-36. Please check the Code carefully, especially for nozzles
that are not isolated or do not meet Code spacing requirements. To force
the computation of areas for small nozzles go to Tools->Configuration
and check the box to force the UG-37 small nozzle area calculation.
UG-45 Minimum Nozzle Neck Thickness Requirement: [Int. Press.]
Wall Thickness for Internal/External pressures ta = 2.1571 mm
Wall Thickness per UG16(b), tr16b = 3.1000 mm
Wall Thickness, shell/head, internal pressure trb1 = 8.9452 mm
Wall Thickness tb1 = max(trb1, tr16b) = 8.9452 mm
Wall Thickness tb2 = max(trb2, tr16b) = 3.1000 mm
Wall Thickness per table UG-45 tb3 = 5.0200 mm
Determine Nozzle Thickness candidate [tb]:
= min[ tb3, max( tb1,tb2) ]
= min[ 5.02, max( 8.95, 3.1 ) ]
= 5.0200 mm
Minimum Wall Thickness of Nozzle Necks [tUG-45]:
= max( ta, tb )
= max( 2.16, 5.02 )
= 5.0200 mm
Available Nozzle Neck Thickness = 0.875 * 8.738 = 7.645 mm -> OK
