What are the characteristics of high-pressure vessel skirts?
It’s not clear; maybe the strength requirements are high, and a skirt base transition section is necessary...
I want to know that too; although I don’t work with high-pressure containers, I still want to learn more about it, waiting for the expert to explain. . .
The thickness of the shell of high-pressure containers is generally large, and of course, their weight is also heavy. 1. If the thickness of the lower head is ≥60 mm, it is advisable to adopt a structural design in which the mid-diameter of the skirt shell aligns with that of the lower head. This way, the force distribution is better! 2. Also, it is necessary to avoid the lower head and ensure that the gaps in the welds are large enough. Generally, the width should be more than 6 times the δ of the lower head. Notch radius, greater than 3 times the lower head δ.
I’ve never worked on high-pressure vessels, but I’ve studied it.
The mid-diameter should be aligned; welding on to the lower head is required, or forgings can be used. If the temperature and material are special and a transition section is needed, then these things will come to mind. .
