Saddle

Developer: Meca Enterprises Chris Rosencutter chris@mecaconsulting.com Perform analysis of a horizontal vessel supported on two saddles. The program performs a complete analysis of teh vessels based upon L. P. Zick's analysis procedure. The program allows the user to specify the wind load, thermal loads, liquid load, and seismic loads on the vessel. A complete analysis is also performed on the saddle, calculating stresses on bolts, base plate, web, stiffeners, and wear plate. Saddle is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. It requires MS Excel 2000 or later to run. English or Metric (Click of the button automatically toggles all inputs and results) The following pages are the output from the Saddle spreadsheet. As an example, we have simulated an example of the Zick analysis performed in the Pressure Vessel Handbook by Megyesy. The example in Megyesy does not address the design of the saddle itself, so there is only a comparison of the vessel stresses. In the output you will see a note symbol that looks like this If you double click this note, you will receive further explanation of the output.
