The new Code Case 2901 has recently been approved by ASME, which allows checking the ratings of the ANSI B16.5 and B16.47 standard welding neck flanges when there are localized loads. Note that the program already automatically calculates an equivalent pressure that takes into account external loads. To use the…
Starting from version 2018.2, a new function is available that allows to consider the forces and moments due to the localized loads applied to nozzles and supports in the calculation of the base loads acting on the supports and in the actions between the sections of the columns calculated during…
Starting from version 2018.2 of NextGen, thanks to the close collaboration with Paulin Research Group, it is possible to perform an FEM finite element analysis of a nozzle directly from the Sant’Ambrogio software. This analysis is performed by NozzlePRO, a software supplied by PRG, to be installed apart from NextGen;…
The calculation of saddles for horizontal vessels in the ASME code is based on Division 2 chapter 4.15.3 SADDLE SUPPORTS FOR HORIZONTAL VESSELS. This method is in turn taken from the publication of 1951 “Stresses in Large Horizontal Cylindrical Pressure Vessels on Two Saddle Supports” by LP Zick. Following several…
During the creation and processing of items (pressure vessels, heat exchangers) with NextGen, the program takes care of keeping some backup copies – or backup – useful in case of corruption of the file you are working on. This corruption can occur due to a power failure, an abnormal software…
