Salad 1.2

Xtrados is pleased to introduce Salad, the scriptable post processor for CAESAR II®. Now you can speed up a whole host of time consuming tasks such as performing supplementary calcs, creating stress summaries and lists.

What Can it Do For Me ?
- Generate the local loads for an off-axis nozzle for all load cases at once.
- Generate an Excel spreadsheet summarising your calculation on one sheet, including maximum stresses, displacements, weight sag, nozzle loads, springs, load cases and major input data. This is a great way to do a quick 'sanity check' on your model !
- Acoustically induced vibration check of your piping system, accounting for multiple sources and decay with distance. These calculations can be very time consuming and fiddly, especially for multiple sources - now there is an easier way.
- API 610 check for all your load cases at once.
- Do a local stress check on all trunnions in your model in one go. If you have modelled the trunnions in your stress model, just tell Salad the restraint numbers and let it do the rest.
- Generate an API 617 compressor nozzle load summation for 10 load cases at a time.
- Generate a restraint summary in local co-ordinates. Great time saver for pipelines and skewed piping runs !
- Carry out a wall thickness calculation using the CAESAR II Material Database.
- Generate a list of structural supports using minimum load thresholds.

You can customise any Salad script to your own needs and preferences and save it as a User Template.
