Compensation against openings in process vessels for giving inlet and outlet connections, for providing sight glasses and manholes etc. is provided for strength and rigidity. The most efficient type of compensation is of _______________ type?
Correct answer: A. Nozzle or rim
- A. Nozzle or rim
- B. Flared out
- C. Fluid in
- D. Ring plate
Explanation
A nozzle or rim-type reinforcement transfers the load around an opening efficiently and restores vessel strength and rigidity with relatively little added material. Ring plates are less efficient reinforcement arrangements.
