Static load of hydraulic fluid column
Thread Content
1. For the hydrostatic test of vertical containers, is it necessary to specify on the drawings the pressure value used for horizontal testing? 2. When performing calculations, should the static load of the liquid column take into account the static load during the hydrostatic test?
1. It is required, especially for equipment with a relatively high length-to-diameter ratio. 2. For equipment with a normal length-to-diameter ratio, only verification is needed; there is no need to include it in the calculation documents. Tall and slender equipment requires calculation documents under hydrostatic test conditions, especially for SAME equipment
1. For the hydrostatic test of vertical containers, the hydrostatic test pressure value should be indicated on the drawings. 2. During calculation, verification shall be carried out based on the pressure value for horizontal hydrostatic testing.
