Nozzle is a device designed to control the direction or characteristics of fluid(especially to increase velocity) as it exits (or enters) an enclosed chamber or pipe. Underdifferent loading conditions, the stress will occur at the nozzle to head or shell junction area.Thus reliable and accurate design calculation for head or shell to nozzle junction is necessary.The calculation for nozzle design gives the information whether the design is adequate forgiven parameters. In this paper, design calculation of nozzle junction based on ASMEpressure vessel design code is carried out for nozzle to head junction subjected to appliedexternal load, internal pressure and moments. The equations are as per ASME Section VIIIDivision I. This paper gives methodize steps and format for design calculation forreinforcement of nozzle. The results are also compared with PV-Elite code.
