Product Data Sheet Bentley AutoPipe Nozzle ® Accurate and streamlined calculation of local stresses at junctions, attachment, and connection points Bentley® AutoPIPE® Nozzle is a stand-alone engineering application that also fully integrates with AutoPIPE for calculating local stresses at nozzle/vessel junctions, trunnion attachment points, clip connections, and lug attachments on the vessel shell. Based on well-known engineering design standards, AutoPIPE Nozzle helps engineers and designers quickly determine whether or not the wall of a pressure vessel, exchanger or tank can withstand piping loads on the nozzle or at clip and lug connections. Efficient User Interface The Bentley AutoPIPE Nozzle interface allows data to be added on one screen. Users can easily sort summary stresses. Post Processing Reporting The efficient Windows interface allows all the input data to be entered on one screen to create the model. The input data and a graphical sketch of the nozzle/vessel configuration are always shown, which provides constant visual feedback. Project and user information can be entered for streamlining file management. QA-style reports with input data, summary and detailed stresses can be saved in multiple convenient formats, including RTF (compatible Word format), HTML, and Adobe Acrobat PDF. Advanced Modeling Capabilities You can choose many different vessel/nozzle configurations, including cylinders, spheres, cones, semi-ellipses, and torispheres with hollow nozzles or support lug attachments, including oblique angle and hillside options. Reinforcing pads can easily be added, including automatic pad design and load attenuation options. Extensive, built-in material libraries contain code-dependent stress allowables, including the latest ASME Section VIII Division 1 and 2, Section I and Section III codes. The analysis engine to compute all the stresses for many different load combinations takes only seconds. Fast Analysis QA-style reports can be saved in multiple formats. The analysis to compute all the stresses for many different load combinations takes only seconds. Sorted summary stresses and ratio results are displayed on the same screen to provide instant visual feedback for any overstress condition. Automatic and customized load combinations are analyzed for each design code and the maximum allowable loads are calculated. Interface With Pipe Stress AutoPIPE Nozzle automatically imports piping forces and moments from the Bentley AutoPIPE application and can compute piping stress intensification factors (SIF) for use in an AutoPIPE pipe stress model.
