Semi-pipe added to flat-roofed, flat-bottomed atmospheric storage tanks
Thread Content
Today, I received a project assignment; the client wants a storage tank with a flat bottom and flat top, operating at atmospheric pressure. The outer half of the tank’s shell is heated, and it seems that the pressure inside the outer half is 1 MPa. Due to my limited knowledge, I have never seen such a jar before. Has everyone seen it? Can this be designed according to the standards for atmospheric-pressure containers? Then use sw6 to calculate the lower half, is that okay?
It can be done by designing it as a device for normal pressure. The half-pipe is calculated in accordance with the standards for mechanically stirred equipment; in fact, there is no need to calculate its strength, as it provides good reinforcement for the cylinder
