    [COLOR=#1f497d]For example: I have the following details for a Vertical Vessels to design:[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=#1f497d]Height-[/COLOR] [COLOR=#1f497d]Length between tangent lines: 3650[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=#1f497d]Diameter: 1450[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=#1f497d]Height of skirt to bottom tangent line: 1500mm.[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=#1f497d]With the followings Explicit Position[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=#1f497d]E=0; N=0;U= 0.[/COLOR]

    [COLOR=#1f497d]How will I Adding or Creating Nozzles to the Vertical vessel or Horizontal Vessel?[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=#1f497d]How do I determine the position, if I want the Nozzle to be at East or West; North or South; Up or Down.[/COLOR]

  • [QUOTE=scottg;12360]You can use the graphical aids displayed by the measurement command to give you additional measurements.

    It is easier to show by the attached pdf image than to describe.

    Display the pdf at 100% to see the graphics properly.
