was handled subject
by the codes,tosuch
internal
as: pressure
ASME Section VIII, Division 1
ASME Section VIII, Division 2
PD 5500 (British Code)
EN 13445 (European Code)
AD 2000 (Merkblatter) (German Code)
CODAP (French Code)
They mainly concentrated on primary membrane stresses (more later)
These stresses had to be below the yield stress of the metal
The strain is not to exceed about 0,2%

Within this region

0,2%

The code allowable stress is about here, below yield
In the case of nozzles subject to external loads, the stresses can be here
That is beyond the scope of the codes
Strains go beyond 0,2%

Within this region

Based upon the theoretical work of Prof. Biljaard of Cornell University


Attachments (nozzles) on cylinders and spheres only can be analysed
There are also geometric limitations
Using WRC 107 is very tedious and time consuming
PV Elite and CodeCalc make this analysis simple and fast

Let us look at some principles of stress analysis
Suppose
Consider the force
a bar weretodelivered
subject a tensile by this arrangement
force

Once the stress passes yield, it continues to stretch until collapse occurs

So, we could re-label the strain axis as time to collapse

This shows we must under normal conditions stay below yield

There is an internal bending stress in the beam

This bending stress can exist everywhere at this location

This stress has the following characteristics

It exists Everywhere General

This is a General Primary Bending stress

Intergraph 2014
Let us look at some principles of stress analysis
Consider a nozzle in a shell subject to an external moment
The shell deforms to accommodate the moment like this
Notice how it pulls the shell to the left, giving rise to a membrane stress
This stress fades away rapidly from the nozzle to shell junction

The bending stress is ignored

The shell deforms to accommodate the moment like this

This stress fades away rapidly from the nozzle to shell junction

That stress does not exist everywhere, therefore it is LOCAL

This is a Local Primary Membrane stress

Radial force P is in the +X direction


Longitudinal force VL is in the -Y direction from B to A

+x and +y are known as Direction Cosines


We need to understand Direction Cosines

The axes can be thought of as the corners of a box
y

z
Label the 3 directions by the letters x, y and z
A vector can be represented by an arrow from the origin

The vector can be represented by r, defines magnitude & direction

The magnitude (length) is defined as |r|, or simply r

Now, if Vy = 1, it follows that y = 0O because cos(0O) = 1

But, if Vx = 0, and Vz = 0, then x = 90O and z = 90O

The vector would then point in the direction of +y
