Dear Sir, Please refer the below code for Nozzle Neck Thickness UG-45 NOZZLE NECK THICKNESS

The minimum wall thickness of nozzle necks shall be the larger of (a) or (b) below. Shear stresses caused by !"## loadings shall not e$ceed the allowable shear stress in (c) below. %or a&&lications of rules in this &aragra&h refer to '&&endi$ (, )$am&les #, *, and + (see (",.#, (",.*, and (",.+, res&ecti-ely). UG-45(a) The minimum wall thickness of a nozzle neck or other connection (including access o&enings and o&enings for ins&ection) shall not be less than the thickness com&uted from the a&&licable loadings in !"## plus the thickness added f ! all "ances for corrosion and threading,as a&&licable .see !"/0(c)(#)1, on the connection. UG-45(b) 'dditionally, the minimum thickness of a nozzle neck or other connection (e$ce&t for access o&enings and o&enings for ins&ection only) shall not be less than the smaller of the nozzle wall thickness as determined by the a&&licable rule in (b)(0), (b)(#) or (b)(/) below, and the wall thickness as determined by (b)(2) below3 UG-45(b)(1) for -essels under internal &ressure only,the thickness (plus c !! si n all "ance) re4uired for &ressure (assuming E&0.5) for the shell or head at the location where the nozzle neck or other connection attaches to the -essel but in no case less than the minimum thickness s&ecified for the material in !"06(b)7 UG-45(b)(2) for -essels under e$ternal &ressure only,the thickness (plus c !! si n all "ance) obtained by using the e$ternal design &ressure as an e4ui-alent internal design &ressure (assuming E & 0.5) in the formula for the shell or head at the location where the nozzle neck or other connection attaches to the -essel but in no case less than the minimum thickness s&ecified for the material in !"06(b)7 UG-45(b)(3) for -essels designed for both internal and e$ternal &ressure, the greater of the thicknesses determined by (b)(0) or (b)(#) abo-e7 UG-45(b)(4) the #ini#u# thickness$% f standa!d "all pipe plus the thickness added f ! c !! si n all "ance on the connection7 for nozzles larger than the largest &i&e size included in 'S8) 9/6.058, the wall thickness of that largest size &lus the thickness added for corrosion allowance on the connection.
