Generally, 3 to 5 times D is used; in fact, high pressures usually don’t require this approach, otherwise the cylinder wall would become too thick

The specific conditions of your equipment are not clear. If it is a low-pressure storage tank, the ratio can be determined based on the actual installation and operating conditions of the equipment; generally, a ratio of 1:2 is sufficient. If the pressure is relatively high, this ratio can be increased slightly. In any case, it is necessary to take into account the inspection holes to facilitate the installation and maintenance of the equipment

Generally, 3 to 5 times D,l is considered ideal
