What are <str<strong>on</strong>g>Nozzle</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>Loads</str<strong>on</strong>g>?<br />
• <str<strong>on</strong>g>Nozzle</str<strong>on</strong>g> loads are <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> net forces <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
moments exerted <strong>on</strong> equipment nozzles<br />
from <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> weight <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g>rmal expansi<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
c<strong>on</strong>nected piping <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> equipment.<br />
• The loads exerted <strong>on</strong> equipment are<br />
directly related to how <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> equipment <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
piping are supported.<br />
• Increased nozzle loads are a cause <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
misalignment <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> increased wear <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
vibrati<strong>on</strong> rates in pumps.<br />
