Dear Moderator,

PVElite evaluates stress ratio for each compoent while calculating hydrotest pressure.

I have a vessel with manhole. Manhole is with blind, here in nozzle dialogue there is no provision for selecting bolt material.

Hence PVElite is not considering bolt stress ratio while computing hydrotest pressure and that results in higher test pressure.

Kindly sort out the issue as it has a high impact whaen deciding hydrotest pressure based on MAWP.
