Description: The label given for the component. It will appear in the component pane, the report dialog, the summary pane, and at the top of the component report. This will default to the component type and component number. For example, the third nozzle for the vessel will start with a description of Nozzle 3. Selecting a fitting on the Design Info tab, will fill in this field; but the description can still be overwritten by the user.
Nozzle Purpose: Select a nozzle type from the drop-down menu or type one into the field. This is included for the user's reference and does not affect the calculations in the software.

The following fields only affect the 3D drawing; they do not have an effect on the calculations or the output.
Distance from Reference Line: For nozzles in cylindrical shells, this indicates the distance from the reference line datum measured along the axis of the vessel. For nozzles in nozzles, this is the axial distance of the second nozzle from the first nozzle's intersection with its host. For example, if a cylindrical nozzle is attached to a cylindrical shell and a second nozzle is attached to the cylindrical nozzle, the distance from reference line will be the distance from the axis of the second nozzle to the location where the cylindrical nozzle intersects the shell. Distance from Center of Head/Flange: This indicates the distance from the center of the head or flange to where the nozzle axis pierces the inside surface; the distance is measured parallel to the axis of the head or flange and does not indicate direction. Nozzle Orientation: Determines the position of the nozzle around the component. Vertical vessels in the standard view will show a nozzle at 0° on the front of the vessel, 90° on the right side of the vessel, and so on. Horizontal vessels in the standard view will show a nozzle at 0° on the top of the vessel, 90° on the back of the vessel, and so on. The angle is determined based on where the nozzle axis penetrates the inside surface of the host. |
Longitudinal Angle of Orientation: For nozzles in shells, this describes the angle between the nozzle axis and the axis of the shell. A 90° angle indicates that the nozzle is not tilted; an angle less than 90° tilts toward the left end or top of the shell while an angle greater than 90° indicates a tilt toward the right end or bottom of the shell. When the nozzle is tangential, this field will be locked to 90°.
