Calculation of lining steel shell thickness
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts: The standard HG20678-2000 \"Technical Specifications for the Design of Lined Steel Vessels\" is used to calculate the thickness of the steel shell for equipment with a Di value of 4000 mm or less. So, how should the thickness of the steel shell be calculated when Di is greater than 4000 mm?
For lengths under 4m, the stiffness requirements related to transportation and other factors are taken into account; for lengths over 4m, calculating costs in that manner would result in very high figures, which is unreasonable. In most cases, large-diameter equipment needs to be manufactured and assembled on-site, and transportation is handled by employing support and reinforcement measures.
