Full Description

This Bulletin provides the designer with a simple and approximate method of calculating maximum stresses due to internal pressure at cylinder intersections. Formulas are provided for calculating membrane and bending stresses in both the vessel and the nozzle. However, this Bulletin does not present any rules for design, but it is rather intended to be an aid in assessing the local structural integrity of the vessel. Cylinder-cylinder intersections are commonly encountered as nozzles in pressure vessels or branches in piping. WRC 107 and WRC 297 provide simple cookbook methods of calculating stresses at such intersections due to external loadings. This Bulletin has been prepared to provide the designer with a simple and approximate method of calculating maximum stresses due to internal pressure at cylinder intersections. Formulas are provided for calculating membrane and bending stresses in both the vessel and the nozzle. ASME B
