How to analyze the stress at the outlet of the tower bottom head? After the analysis, the results should be submitted to the equipment department for tower fabrication
Thread Content
I calculate a pipeline that goes from the tower to the reboiler. How is the stress at the bottom head of the tower calculated? I’m currently using constraint anchoring at the header, with normal modeling for the rest. C2 calculation. I’d like to ask the experts here: how do you handle this? Normal process: After calculating the head anchorage points using C2, they need to be handed over to the equipment tower construction team. Is it this process? Our current situation: We have now completed the construction of this tower, as well as determining the forces and moments at the head anchor points. It is only provided to the equipment department.
The stress calculation at the bottom head of a tower requires taking into account factors such as the geometric shape of the head, the mechanical properties of the material, and the loads applied to it. Common analysis methods include the finite element method and analytical methods, etc. If you are using pressure vessel design software, it usually also provides these calculation functions. Generally, manufacturing pressure vessels requires compliance with relevant standards and specifications, such as the ASME Code. These standards and specifications detail how to calculate the stresses at the bottom head of the tower, and provide the corresponding checking formulas and calculation methods. You can refer to these standards and specifications for design and calculation. After completing the calculations, you need to submit the results to the device to construct the tower. Since you have now completed the construction of the tower, what is needed are the forces and moments at the anchorage points of the tower’s base cover. It is recommended that you discuss this with the equipment department to determine whether these values meet their requirements, so as to decide on the next steps to take. .
