Parametric study of nozzle connections in ellipsoidal head vessel / Haszeme Abu Kasim
In designing the pressure vessel equipment, the nozzle connection requires a careful study of many regions. One of the critical aspects in designing pressure vessels is the nozzle connections in the ellipsoidal head of two intersecting shells. Two of the most important design guide (codes and standa...

In designing the pressure vessel equipment, the nozzle connection requires a careful study of many regions. One of the critical aspects in designing pressure vessels is the nozzle connections in the ellipsoidal head of two intersecting shells.

Both ASME and WRC standards do not directly address procedures or provide acceptance criteria for the effect of external forces and moments imposed by a piping system to the nozzle, and do not deal with ellipsoidal heads. Therefore, a parametric study was carried out in this research.
