When calculating earthquakes for pressure equipment, need to add design according to paragraph 3.2.2.5 of EN 1998-1. This would allow the design to consider a reduced design spectrum relative to the elastic range.

Add saddles for transport on vertical vessels. Calculation should be similar to horizontal vessel on saddles, but with transportation loads. This will eliminate need for an additional model for transport. Transport will be part of report and will ...

While designing heat exchanger as per EN 13445-3, AutoPIPE Vessel is considering elastic modulus at mean metal temperature but elastic modulus values should be taken at design design temperature. Refer attached snap.

The Software calculate the fiber elongation according ASME SECTION VIII division 1 according UG-79. The term “t” is the nominal thickness for the component. For dished end it is only possible insert the minimum thickness and the calculation of the...

When we have a bogy flanged implemented in a cylindrical shell we need to define a thickness for shell and a thickness for flange (g0). Normally the both thickness are the same and the software only take into account the shell value for internal p...

Please add the possibility to enter the values lt, ht and eat according to EN13445 16.12.4 for the design of skirt. In my attached file, when changing lt to 179.7 mm and eat to 7.7 mm, the formula (16.12-70) is now verified without changing the sk...

Sometimes designers want to create a custom flange specially for large diameter nozzle which can then be checked as a body flange (Appendix 2 etc.). Currently this can be done as a separate model but an option to include custom flange to a nozzle ...

Today only transversal wind is considered, but longitudinal wind may be significant for big vessel. In addition, those moments and loads whould be found in the foundation loads. Also, if a External load is applied, the only moment availalbe ("bend...

Possibility to add a Bolted Domed end according EN 13445.3 clause 12

Update the material database inclouding more grades of Titanium such as grade 12 that is highly used in the industry, also update EN13445 with Titanium, Nickel and similar alloys, joint efficiency and safety factors according to EN13445-9,10,11 an...
