Regarding proportional matching
Thread Content
When receiving an order, only the volume is specified; it is asked: 1. Under the condition of meeting the volume requirement, what is a suitable ratio between the cylinder diameter and the equipment’s length? 2. There are regulations regarding that point. 3. How do regular manufacturers determine it?
There doesn’t seem to be any specification regarding the length-to-diameter ratio of the equipment! However, there are corresponding standards for selecting the nominal diameter; in my opinion, the visual proportionality should also be taken into account, and this may vary from one manufacturer to another!
There is generally no specified ratio, but you need to consider the appearance of the container as well as the amount of material used. In other words, it’s about finding the way to use the least amount of material possible in order to increase your financial benefits
If the user has no constraints regarding the location, the arrangement should be based on principles of aesthetic consistency and material efficiency. For ordinary storage tanks, the length-to-diameter ratio should generally be around 2:1; reaction vessels, on the other hand, tend to have a more compact, rounded shape
See the \"Standard Series for Chemical Processing Equipment\"
Volume 3 of the \"Chemical Equipment Standards Series\" contains the dimensions of various equipment, which can be used as a reference and are also convenient for use when quoting prices.
