Hi Mike, Why do you set pressure area to zero. Isn't a flexible hose the same as a bellows, i.e. there will be a net unbalanced pressure thrust force on the pipe? Even if the hose is capable of resisting the longitudinal pressure force, because it is so much more flexible than pipe, the piping will end up resisting the pressure force and seeing these stresses (?). Best Regards Fergus
