The cylinder is divided into three sections circumferentially and designed as a detachable structure; how can its sealing be ensured? Initially, flat flange connections are being considered, but I would appreciate guidance on how to calculate the strength of such flanges
Based on the pressure rating of the cylinder, select a nominal pressure flange of one size larger, and then connect it using the flat flange as mentioned by the poster; for specific details, refer to HG20592-20635
According to the poster, it is actually an axial flat flange connection; this type of structure is suitable for structural components or situations with low pressure, but it is not safe when the pressure is high.
Reply to 3# baijianfeng: The container is of Class I, with a diameter of DN5000 and an axial length of over 10 meters. How should this axial flat flange be calculated?
