Calculation of vacuum vessel wall thickness
Thread Content
How is the calculation of vacuum vessels performed in SW6?
For external pressure calculation, enter -P at the design pressure.
For external pressure calculations, enter a negative value for the design pressure; pay attention to the selection of the calculation length for the cylinder...
Simply put, for a cylinder with 2 end caps and no stiffening rings, how should the calculated length of the cylinder be determined?
Please refer to a-1) in Figure 4-1 of GB150.3-2011:
The original poster, come on – you’re in the 6th grade of elementary school; how can you not know how to calculate the length under external pressure in such situations?
Hey~ Have you ever experienced a situation where you just can’t think of how to write a certain word?
Got it. Thank you for the explanation. I only looked at the few graphs on SW6 and forgot to check the 150 value; I’m still not familiar enough with it. .
