Both ends of the model are "fixed," except that one end
is free axially so that longitudinal pressure stresses
may be developed in the geometry.

Stresses will be calculated in the weld elements surrounding

the junction of the nozzle with the parent shell. This is
typically done to get accurate values for the pressure
stresses on the inside surface of the nozzle in the
longitudinal plane. The effect of any external loads will
overemphasized (too conservative) in this run.

Torsion : 0.463 0.899 0.927 0.681
Pressure: 1.057 1.091 1.567 1.013

The above stress intensification factors are to be used

in a beam-type analysis of the piping system. Inplane,
Outplane and Torsional sif's should be used with the
matching branch pipe whose diameter and thickness is given
below. The axial sif should be used to intensify the

33/47
axial stress in the branch pipe calculated by F/A. The
pressure sif should be used to intensify the nominal
pressure stress in the PARENT or HEADER, calculated
from PDo/2T. B31 calculations use mean diameters and
Section VIII calculations use outside diameters. SSIs are
based on peak stress factors and correlated test results.

Pipe OD : 219.100 mm.

Pipe Thk: 8.180 mm.

peak stress factors from the finite element analysis.

B31.3 Branch Pressure i-factor = 10.000

Header Pressure i-factor = 2.132

The B31.3 pressure i-factors should be used with with

F/A, where F is the axial force due to pressure, and
A is the area of the pipe wall. This is equivalent to
finding the pressure stress from (ip)(PD/4T).

NOTES:

1) Maximum Individual Occuring Loads are the maximum

allowed values of the respective loads if all other
load components are zero, i.e. the listed axial force
may be applied if the inplane, outplane and torsional
moments, and the pressure are zero.

2) The Conservative Allowable Simultaneous loads are

the maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously.
A conservative stress combination equation is used
that typically produces stresses within 50-70% of the
allowable stress.

3) The Realistic Allowable Simultaneous loads are the

maximum loads that can be applied simultaneously. A
more realistic stress combination equation is used
based on experience at Paulin Research. Stresses are
typically produced within 80-105% of the allowable.

4) Secondary allowable loads are limits for expansion

and operating piping loads.

5) Primary allowable loads are limits for weight,

primary and sustained type piping loads.

Flexibilities $X

The following stiffnesses should be used in a piping,

"beam-type" analysis of the intersection. The stiff-
nesses should be inserted at the surface of the
branch/header or nozzle/vessel junction. The general
characteristics used for the branch pipe should be:

Outside Diameter = 219.100 mm.

Wall Thickness = 8.180 mm.

Axial Translational Stiffness = 109373. N /mm.

Inplane Rotational Stiffness = 129361264. mm. N /deg
Outplane Rotational Stiffness = 39257168. mm. N /deg

The following stiffness(es) were not generated because

of errors in input or because the finite element model
is stiffer than the piping model.

Intersection Flexibility Factors for Branch/Nozzle

Find axial stiffness: K = 3EI/(kd)^3 N /mm.
Find bending and torsional stiffnesses: K = EI/(kd) mm. N per radian.
The EI product is 0.58865E+13 N mm.^2
The value of (d) to use is: 210.920 mm..
The resulting bending stiffness is in units of force x length per radian.

Axial Flexibility Factor (k) = 2.582

Inplane Flexibility Factor (k) = 3.765
