ALLOWABLE NOZZLE LOADS
This appendix defines the allowable piping loads acting on nozzles of process vessels such as
columns, drums and shell and tube heat exchangers interconnected with piping designed by the
Purchaser.
Notes:1. For all nozzles and connections, except manways and other openings intended solely for
access or inspection, the Supplier shall determine the stresses in the vessel or exchanger
resulting from the worst combination of any internal pressure up to the design pressure at
design temperature and the externally applied forces and moments specified in the table
above.
2. The Supplier shall assume the forces and moments in the table above act simultaneously in
all 3 planes in the worst combination and direction i.e. at the nozzle to shell junction.
3. The loads in the table above are not intended for use on pumps, compressors, fired heaters
or other such equipment that already have nozzle loads defined within their base design code
i.e. API standards.
4. The loads in the table above are not intended for use on low pressure or atmospheric tanks.
5. For nozzles with a flange rating exceeding ASME B16.5 class 1500 or for nominal diameter
exceeding DN600 i.e. ASME B16.47, refer to the Principal for loads to be utilised.
6. Nozzles smaller than DN50 do not need to be analysed for nozzle loads unless stated
otherwise on the specific equipment data sheet.
7. Nozzle/Shell flexibility shall not be taken into account unless specifically agreed by the
Principal.
8. Unless noted otherwise in the equipment specification or data sheets, the loads in the table
above shall also be applied to piping termination points (TP) on skid mounted packaged
equipment. All TP's shall be anchored at skid edge unless agreed otherwise by the Principal.
