b CALCULATION OF OPENING REINFORCEMENT

Per UG-36(c)(3) this nozzles do not require reinforcement other than that inherent in the construction under
the following conditions:
1.- Welded connections
2.- Finished opening is not larger than that required in UG-36-(c)(3)(a).
3.- No two isolated unreinforced openings have their centers closer to each other than the sum of their diameters
4.- Openings in a cluster of three of more have their centers located in compliance with UG-36(c)(3)(d).

c CALCULATION OF NOZZLE NECK THICKNESS. PER UG-45

ta = Pn*Rn / ( Sn*En - 0.6*P ) 0.006 in 0.159 mm


ta+ca= 0.046 in 1.159 mm

from table UG-45 tb3= 0.123 in 3.124 mm


tb1 = P*(L + ca)*M / (2*Sh*E - 0.2*P) tb1= 0.292 in 7.405 mm
for external pressure vessels tb2= 0.000 in 0.000 mm
tb= 0.123 in 3.124 mm
Minimum neck Thickness = t ug-45= 0.123 in 3.124 mm
tn= 0.250 in 6.350 mm
As tn is > than t ug-45 then tn is Satisfactory
d VERIFICATION OF FILLET WELD SIZES PER UW-15 & 16

tmin = smaller of 3/4" or thinner of th or tn-ca 0.211 in 5.350 mm


tw = 0 .7 * tmin 0.147 in 3.745 mm
tc41 = smaller of 1/4" or tw 0.147 in
tc41 actual = 0.707 * w41 0.167 in fllet size is OK
tc43 = smaller of 1/4" or tw ( 0 if h = 0 ) 0.147 in
tc43 actual = 0.707 * w43 0.167 in fllet size is OK

e STRENGTH CALCULATIONS OF WELDS


Per UW-15(b)(2), the strength calculations for nozzle attachment welds for pressure loadings are not required, as openings are exempted from
