Featured: Wall thickness calculations for cylindrical and spherical vessels
Calculate minimum required thickness for cylindrical and spherical shells under pressure
Calculate volume and weight capacity for various vessel configurations
Design two-phase and three-phase separators with sizing calculations
Calculate dimensions and thickness for various pressure vessel heads
For cylindrical shells under internal pressure (UG-27):
t = (PR)/(SE - 0.6P)
For spherical shells under internal pressure (UG-27):
t = (PR)/(2SE - 0.2P)
Where:
t = minimum required thickness
P = internal design pressure
R = inside radius
S = maximum allowable stress
E = joint efficiency factor
For 2:1 ellipsoidal heads (UG-32):
t = (PD)/(2SE - 0.2P)
For torispherical heads (UG-32):
t = (0.885PL)/(SE - 0.1P)
Where:
L = crown radius
D = inside diameter
Other variables same as above
