Float valve tower section

2018-12-25View Original

Thread Content

I am currently working on a course project related to floating valve towers, and my teacher has asked me to indicate on the overall assembly diagram the locations of the longitudinal and circumferential welds for each section of the cylinder. Could anyone with experience advise me on how to determine these locations and how to represent them in the diagram? The cylinder section of the tower, excluding the skirt and head sections, totals 16,000 units, and manholes or large connections are located at the five positions of 2090, 6050, 8100, 10600, and 13100

First, the diameter and thickness are not clear; if a thickness is available, use the standard wide-width X length available in the market. Second, calculate the perimeter by multiplying the mean diameter (diameter + wall thickness) by 3.1416, and determine the number of sections based on the length. Third, the welding of A (longitudinal) and B (circumferential) type welds is determined by width and length. For problems like this, college students should look for information on their own and think by themselves; it’s better to seek help only when they really don’t know where to turn.

The inner diameter of the cylinder is 1000, and the wall thickness is 8. I need to finish this today, so I’m asking experts for help
