How to calculate the thickness of the cylinder and the conical head for a tube section with a diameter of 400 on the equipment?
Thread Content
There is an existing tube section (DN800); the lower part of it serves as a device flange, while the upper part is a conical head (with folds at both the large and small ends, at 120°). A DN400 tube section is connected to the upper part of the small end; the height of this small tube section is 2200, and its top portion is an elliptical head. Now I need to calculate the wall thickness of the large barrel section and the conical seal. How should I do this? Can SW6-2011 be used for this calculation? Looking forward to your guidance
Software can be calculated; it is recommended that the original poster first become familiar with the standards.
Is the general shape something like this? You can carry out the calculations in SW6 as required; since your design parameters are incomplete, I can’t provide much information. If you are a beginner, you need to build a solid foundation first; otherwise, the entire knowledge system will not be coherent, and you’ll end up working twice as hard for half the result. This industry is highly specialized, so you need to delve into it, think deeply, and it’s best to have a mentor to guide you.
For the section on GB150 heads, take a look by yourself; the calculations for SW6 heads include options for different types
As requested, calculations can be performed using SW6.
