Abstract: A  3-D  linear  elastic  analysis  has  been  performed  for  a  circular  crack  located  in  the  nozzle  corner  region  of  a  nuclear  pressure  vessel.  The  stress  intensity  factor,  K  ,  was  found  to  be  virtually  constant  along  the  crack  front  for  this  particular  nozzle  corner  flaw,  which  extends  one  quarter  of  the  distance  through  the  nozzle  corner  diagonal.  The  magnitude  of  K  is  discussed  in  relation  to  the  stress  intensity  factor  for  the  ASME  Maximum  Postulated  Flaw,  and  is  compared  to  the  results  of  a  number  of  other  analyses  reported  in  the  literature.
