Hi All,
Can you explain whether same allowable forces/moments at nozzle terminals of API-560 fired heater connection is applicable for both sustained, max. operating, occasional - all load conditions ?
If we want to use maximum allowable movements at nozzle terminal, will we have to keep the terminal connection free in all six (X,Y,Z,OX,OY,OZ) directions & meet the allowable movements in Table 7 of API -560. Why is this not implemented in Caesar-II ?
Please correct my understanding that both the allowable forces/moments & allowables movements are not simultaneousely applicable & the first approach used by Caesar-II is one acceptable approach where no allowable movements are to be met at nozzle terminal.
regards,
sambhu
