Hi Richard / Dave / All stress eng,

Is it possible to model super heater coils in Caesar in order to get the reactions at supporting brackets ? I found some discussion which was back in 2009, Richard mentioned about a COIL model.

Yes, you can model coils in CAESAR II.

Looking down the coil you see just the circle. Create four perpendicular tangents around that circle - this will be the pipe routing (four 90 degree bends make one revolution). Add a dimension in a direction perpendicular to the circle to give it pitch. Duplicate, renumber and paste to add the next loop around.

If you have any branches or supports on the coil, I suggest you add additional straight tangents to intersect the coil where ever these points occur. This will place a node on the coil (rather than just tangent intersections) and will keep the plot looking nice.

dear dave,


do you have any sample CII file for super heater coil modelling.

can you share that file for reference.


thank you in advance.
