ASME Horizontal Vessel Analysis: Stresses for the Left Saddle

(per ASME Sec. VIII Div. 2 based on the Zick method.)

Horizontal Vessel Stress Calculations : Operating Case
Note: There are more than two saddles present in this model. The load on
the saddle supports has been taken as the total weight divided by the
number of saddles. Insure that this is an appropriate assumption for
this vessel model.
Note: Wear Pad Bearing angle is less than saddle angle + saddle/12
degrees. The wear plate will be ignored.
Minimum Wear Plate Angle [theta1]:
= 180.0 degrees
Note: Wear Pad Width (0.00) is less than 1.56*sqrt(rm*t)
and less than 2a. The wear plate will be ignored.
Minimum Wear Plate Width to be considered in analysis [b1]:
= min( b + 1.56*sqrt( Rm * t ), 2a )
= min( 500.000 + 1.56*sqrt( 2016.4998 * 27.0000 ), 2 * 1050.800 )
= 864.0035 mm

Bolt Area Calculation per Dennis R. Moss

Bolt Area Requirement Due to Longitudinal Load [Bltarearl]:
= 0.0 (QO > QL --> No Uplift in Longitudinal direction)

Bolt Area due to Shear Load [Bltarears]:

= Fl / (Stba * Nbolts)
= 1333399/(172365.00 * 8.00 )
= 967.0145 mm
Bolt Area due to Transverse Load
Moment on Baseplate Due to Transverse Load [Rmom]:
= B * Ft + Sum of X Moments
= 2800.00 * 333349.91 + 0.00
= 933758.12 N-m
Eccentricity (e):
= Rmom / QO
= 933758/1521020
= 613.65 mm < Bplen/6 --> No Uplift in Transverse direction
Bolt Area due to Transverse Load [Bltareart]:
= 0 (No Uplift)
Required of a Single Bolt [Bltarear]
= max[Bltarearl, Bltarears, Bltareart]
= max[0.0000 , 967.0145 , 0.0000 ]
= 967.0145 mm
