- 01Shell model, then solid with gussets and welds
Agitator nozzle
Top-head nozzle under the agitator's weight, thrust, torque and rotating bending; fatigue cycles from speed, run hours and starts.
Opening a tool asks you to sign in. The finite-element tools are free during early access and under independent verification.
Use it for
- 01Nozzle and head stresses with fatigue from speed, run hours and starts.
- 02The gussets round the nozzle: how many and how big, meshed with their welds.
- 03The flange tilt against the vendor's limit.
