Problem:

How to create a nozzle on head in AutoPIPE Vessel?

Solution:

There are 2 ways to do it:

METHOD 1: Enter a negative value in Location field (which is the distance measured towards right from the Ref[1]:0 line or the left tangent line) in the Nozzle Properties window for locating a nozzle on the left head as shown in the image below:

This locates the nozzle at center of the left head.

For locating on right head, enter a value in Location field that exceeds the straight length of the shell.

METHOD 2: You can create a nozzle anywhere and right click, then click MOVE and drag the nozzle holding the left mouse button and locate it on the left or right head, wherever you want.

Use the Offset, Orientation, Inclination fields to specify the values you want to enter to locate the nozzle appropriately.
