I have a question regarding jackets
Thread Content
Experts, for a jacket with a design pressure of 0.5 MPa and a volume of 2.5 m3, using cooling water as the medium, does this constitute a pressure vessel? Are the cylinder and head considered the main compression elements?
The jacket is not counted; according to the fixed-volume regulations, it does not fall into that category.
Although the jacket section is not classified, the entire jacketed vessel should be managed according to the category of the two most stringent vessel chambers: the inner cylinder and the jacket.
Does that mean the jacket cylinder and head are also the main pressure-bearing elements?
I don’t understand what the jacket, the medium inside the inner cylinder, pressure, and temperature are Only then can it be determined
