Horizontal Pressure Vessel General Arrangement: Nozzles, Manway and Saddles

General arrangement model and drawing of a horizontal pressure vessel on saddle supports. 1200 mm inside diameter and 3000 mm tangent to tangent with 2:1 semi-elliptical heads, 3620 mm overall Capacity 3.85 m3. The volume measured from the 3D model matches the hand formula for the shell plus two heads Five connections on a nozzle schedule: DN100 inlet and outlet, DN50 vent and drain, and a DN500 manway with a blind cover. Flanges are drawn to the EN 1092-1 PN16 pattern with the bolt holes modeled Nozzle necks set into the shell and trimmed flush inside Two saddles with a 120 degree wrap, stiffeners and base plates, and two lifting lugs About 1520 kg empty, with the shell and heads shown 10 mm thick Files: STEP of the shell, nozzles, manway cover, saddles and lugs and of the assembly (opens in SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Inventor, Creo and Onshape), a 1:20 general arrangement drawing with a nozzle schedule (PDF and DXF) and presentation renders. This is a general arrangement, not a code design. Design pressure and temperature, plate thicknesses, nozzle reinforcement and weld details have to be calculated to the governing code (ASME VIII, EN 13445 or PD 5500) by a qualified engineer before fabrication. The model is parametric, so diameter, length, nozzle positions and sizes are quick to change.
