Is the ability to perform FEA on nozzles a standard COMPRESS feature? How does it work? |
Yes, this feature is included in each Standard COMPRESS License.
- After you've defined the loads, click the FEA button on the tool bar or Ctrl + right-click on the nozzle itself to begin the analysis.
- Review your results and, if necessary, modify your design.
- Once complete, the FEA output is automatically included in your COMPRESS report, making results easily available for third party review.

The FEA capability within COMPRESS was developed by PRG, the leading FEA experts for vessels and piping. This analysis of combined cyclic pressure, thermal and mechanical loads is based on the design by analysis rules of ASME Section VIII, Division 2.
