The stress analysis basis used in the ASME Code to analyze the nozzle reinforcement is called Beams on
Elastic Foundation (Hetenyi, 1946). This method determines the effectiveness of the material close to the
opening for carrying loads. Reinforcement limits are developed parallel and perpendicular to the shell surface
near the opening. Although the method is a simplified application of the elastic foundation theory, experience
has shown that it does a good job.
Values from two equations are used to set the reinforcement limits measured along the vessel wall surface.
The greater value sets the horizontal limit for that opening. The first value is equal to d, and the second
value is equal to 0.5d + t + tn as shown in Fig. 5.2. The relationship of the nozzle wall thickness

The document discusses pressure vessel design according to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. It covers topics such as vessel shapes, orientations, closures, joints, nozzles, supports, and internals. The key points are:
- Pressure vessels are usually cylindrical in shape for uniform flow and easier distribution of fluids. Spheres require the least material but are not widely used.
- Vertical orientation is most common for smaller footprint and easier distribution. Horizontal vessels promote phase separation.
- Welded joints are preferred but gasketed joints allow for frequent opening. Nozzles are needed for feeds, products, utilities and instrumentation.
- Reinforcement is required around nozzles to strengthen the shell

Abacus Valves specialise in the manufacture of Wafer Check Valves;These type of valves are often referred to as Non-Return Valves, which means they normally allow substances to flow through in only one direction.There are normally two openings in the body, one for fluid to enter and the other for fluid to leave, known as two-port valves.They can be designed for a specific cracking pressure, which is the minimum pressure required to lift the disc (or the plate) off the seat and induce flow.Check valves are installed in pipeline systems to allow fluid flow (liquid or gas) in one direction only and close automatically if flow is interrupted or reversed. They’re used in chemical and power plant systems, and many other industrial processes, for example, when multiple gases are mixed into one gas stream.Some of the common benefits of Wafer Check Valves are listed here. One important aspect is the prevention of reverse flow, which can cause valve slamming and pressure surges. This can result in damage to piping systems and rotating equipment designed to rotate in one direction.
These are some of typicalapplications and systems where Abacus wafer check valves may be installed.
At present, we offer 4 main types of wafer check valve:Twin Plate,Sprung Disc, Nozzle Check and Swing Type.Variations of each are available within our Standard, Plastic, Lined andHigh Performance ranges.Our valves are manufactured in a wide range of materials, including:Stainless Steels (Austenitic, Martensitic and Duplex)Carbon Steel,Hastelloy™ (Nickel Alloy),Monel™ (Nickel Alloy),Titanium,Cast Iron and various Plastics (PTFE, PVC, PP, PVDF).
Twin Plate design and options.
Sprung disc design and options.
Swing Type design and options.
Nozzle check design and options.
Abacus has full in-house design capabilities. Products and bespoke designs are processed through a 3D Computer Aided Engineering package.Full transfer of files for CNC programming and Cast Simulation allows for interaction in-house, and with foundry or sub contractors. We also carry out independent consultancy work for established valve manufacturers and contractors.
Recently at Abacus Valves;There’s been a significant investment in our facilities, with the addition of an automated test rig, Lapping Machines and further CNC machining in the form of a 3 axis Mill, which has contributed to an increase in our production capacity.We identified a need for key personnel; a Purchasing & Scheduling Manager, Supply Chain Engineer and Technical Sales.Software has been upgraded to ensure we plan our production schedules more effectively, with staff training is ongoing at present. Initial enquiries and research undertaken into specific overseas valve markets (Brazil, Russia,South Africa).
Abacus plans for the future include continuing to develop overseas representation and export markets,and looking at ways to expand our presence online.We’re also committed to increasing our capacity by finalising a move to larger premises within the year.<END> Thank you for listening etc.
