The CAESAR II equipment and component analysis modules define and check vessels, flanges, turbines, compressors, pumps and heat exchangers for excessive piping loads.

You must first analyze suction (inlet), discharge (exhaust), and extraction lines of the equipment or component for forces and moments in separate analysis runs of the piping system. You can then run an equipment or component analysis to determine if these loads are acceptable according to the governing code.

The analysis modules can separately analyze the nozzles on equipment. You often only have suction side loads, and the dimensions of the pump are unknown. In these cases, the software accepts a zero or a blank entry for the unknown data and generates a single-nozzle equipment check report. Although overall compliance is not being evaluated, you can still check individual nozzle limits. This is useful when you are more interested in load guidance instead of a fixed or precise limit on allowables.

The analysis modules are available on the CAESAR II main window Analysis tab.
