The reliable and trouble-free operation of the capacitive equipment of hazardous production facilities is significantly influenced by the quality of the installation performed before commissioning. So, during the installation of capacitive equipment, various geometric inconsistencies and deviations may occur, which are established by the current regulatory and technical documents for the installation of technological equipment. If unacceptable deviations and inconsistencies established by regulatory and technical documents are found, they must be fully eliminated. However, in certain cases, the regulatory and technical documentation allows operation with various insignificant geometric deviations and inconsistencies that do not go beyond the established limits. This may relate to deviations from the design horizontal position of the apparatus when installed on a foundation. It should be noted that during operation, under the influence of increased pressure, temperature and other loads, an apparatus with deviations of this type can undergo a completely different stress-deformed state compared to an apparatus without geometric deviations, which is not taken into account in expert diagnostics, strength analysis and assessment of residual resource. The solution to this issue can be approached using software systems that allow building 3D models of the objects under consideration with the introduction of all the necessary parameters into these models and getting a real picture of the distribution of zones of increased stress. In this work, the stress-deformed state of the process vessel is simulated due to the impact of working loads and different directions of deviation from the horizontal design position of the body when the apparatus is mounted on the foundation.
