ASME design help! How to fix errors in shell nozzle modeling in PVELite?
Thread Content
As shown in the figure, a flush fitting with a reinforcement ring (a fitting for manholes) is inserted into the conical shell of the container, with an outer extension length of 150 mm and an inner extension length of 0. However, two errors were found in the diagram: 1. The connector extends a certain length inside the diagram, but the value entered for the extension length in the \"Projection inside\" setting for the connector is clearly 0. 2. The reinforcing ring in the diagram is not attached tightly to the outer surface of the cone shell; instead, it is located inside the cone shell. Help: How can I make corrections so that the modeled object in the image area is displayed correctly? I hope the experts can give some advice! ! !
If the reinforcement ring is not shown on the cone, it can be ignored; as long as the dimensions are entered correctly, that’s sufficient. What’s important is to check the information in the calculation sheet – as long as there are no errors
Is that so. . Then why do the nozzles on the cylindrical shell appear to be quite normal?
The model shows deviations on the conical shell, but as long as the values are entered correctly, there will be no issues with the calculations.
In many cases, PVELite 3D graphing or calculations may be incorrect. In such cases, you should submit an SR (Support Request) to PVELite’s technical support for assistance, provided that you are a valid licensed user.
