CAESAR-II HELP FILE - PRESSURE THRUST?? - 07/01/13 11:39 PM

Include Pressure Thrust

1.Select 'False' if the user DOES NOT wants to include the pressure thrust force in the nozzle axial loading. Otherwise select 'True' in this field.

2. This value is only used if the user is performing the WRC 107 analysis.

Above information taken from CAESAR-II help file. Can I know the meaning of point 2 ?

If the pressure thrust is only used for WRC-107 analysis, then why pressure thrust option is given in WRC-297??
