Treatment of flange thickness

2015-09-14View Original

Thread Content

When using SW6 to calculate the flange thickness, why does a thicker head wall thickness result in a thicker flange? Additionally, how should this be balanced?

Since the thicker the head wall thickness, the greater the stress concentration at the opening, the flange is made thicker. It is recommended to determine the dimensions of various parts of the flange by referring to the flange dimensions of the same specification, and then conduct strength calculations.

Thank you, that must be the reason; it’s very thorough.
