Node Displacement Table

Property

Description

Operating Mode

Choose operation mode for which the results will be displayed

Maximum - the maximum value will be displayed in every cell from all operation modes

Here you can see analysis results from each of additional force-based loading, seismic, wind, and ice loading

Submode

For every operating mode software calculates several submodes (piping states)

• Maximum - maximum displacement values (for the absolute value) are displayed for each axis in all states (Operation state, Cold state, Test state)

• Maximum and minimum - maximum and minimum displacement values for all axes in all states are displayed (Operation state, Cold state, Test state)

• Operation state

• Cold state

• Test state

For more information, see force and effect combination.

Occasional Loads

• Maximim + Seismic. Seismic load cases are considered

• Maximum and minimum + Seismic

Axis

Linear and rotational displacements are displayed as projections on coordinate axes:

• In global axes (X, Y, Z) - Δ_X, Δ_Y, Δ_Z, φ_X, φ_Y, φ_Z (fig. 1.a)

• In local element axes (projections on the horizontal plane) (Xmm, Ymm, Zmm) - in local restraint coordinate system Δ_Xmm, Δ_Ymm, Δ_Zmm, φ_Xmm, φ_Ymm, φ_Zmm

• In local element axes (Xm, Ym, Zm) - Δ_Xm, Δ_Ym, Δ_Zm, φ_Xm, φ_Ym, φ_Zm (fig. 1.b)

Displacement filter

Only linear, only rotational, or linear and rotational displacements are displayed

Element filter

Displacement in all nodes, only in supports and hangers, only in valves, only in bends is displayed
