Use Appendix 46 Nozzle Rules
Are you using the Division 2 nozzle rules yet?
I know a lot of Owner/Operators are afraid of using the Division 2 rules because they are weary of using higher allowable stresses. Did you know that you can apply the lower Division 1 allowables with the Division 2 rules by using Appendix 46 in Division 1 designs? This means engineers like me can still save big money where the Division 2 rules offer a clear advantage. This is especially evident in nozzle design where the Bildy rules often avoid extraneous nozzle reinforcement compared to the Division 1 area-of-replacement rules.
