Bentley WinNOZL V8i - Readme
Version 08.11.00.01
Build Tpe: Select Release Product
Operating Systems: Microsoft Windows (see System Requirements for specific details)
Language: English
Date: 05-22-2009
Bentley® WinNOZL is a stand-alone, engineering application used for calculating local stresses at nozzle/vessel junctions, trunnion attachment points, clip connections and lug attachments on the vessel shell. Based on well-known engineering design standards like WRC, KHK, API and PD, WinNOZL helps engineers and designers quickly determine whether or not the wall of a pressure vessel, exchanger or tank can withstand piping loads on the nozzle or at clip and lug connections.

Applications Included in the Install File
WinNOZL is installed from one executable. The license file received from Bentley BAC will initiate your specific application.
WinNOZL - The standard configuration of WinNOZL includes these features:
¦ Internationally recognized design codes:
WRC 107, WRC 297, BS PD5500, API 650 and KHK 1 & 2
¦ Extensive material libraries for ASME VIII Div I, Div II and PD5500, 1998 ASME VIII code case 2290, 2000 ASME I, III & IV, PD5500/enquiry case 91, ASME materials to the PD5500, JIS, KHK
¦ JIS and DIN pipe property library
¦ Shell types: cylindrical, conical, spherical, semielliptical, and torispherical
¦ Nozzle attachment types: hollow or solid round, hollow or solid rectangular
¦ Shell deflections, rotations and stiffness values are calculated for all shell types per PD5500 Annex G for longitudinal, circumferential and radial loadings

Before you install any software, you should confirm that you have adequate hardware and software capabilities to install and use the product.
Product Download and Installation
To download the products, create a MySELECT CD or to complete the licensing process, you must have the appropriate roles assigned by your Site Administrator. If you have not been assigned these roles you will need to obtain the name of your Site Administrator from the Bentley website at SELECTservices Online at http://selectservices.bentley.com . Select MySupport Account / Permissions. Clicking on the List SELECTservices Administration button will access the Site Administrator at your company enabling you to request that the appropriate permissions be added to your profile.
With the appropriate privileges you can obtain the software as an electronic file from Web Downloads or the products may be ordered on a personal CD through MySELECT CD. Once you have installed the desired product you will need to complete the product authorization process by obtaining a license file from Bentley.
Network Considerations
Network drives are not supported for the software and data files.
WinNOZL software must be installed on a local client workstation.
WinNOZLdata files (*.NOZ) must have full read/write access and can only be accessed from a local client workstation.
Bentley SELECT Server Licensing
WinNOZL will be licensed based on availability of license in License Management Tool . For more details on licensing refer to readme file or online help.
Documentation
Program Help:
Detailed feature information may be accessed directly from the calling application by selecting the Help command, or by pressing the Help button from any of the application dialogs. Be sure to explore the program Help for answers to your questions.
