18 inch drop test equals to ??? g level shock/crash test?
(OP)
Hello my friends,
We had a pressure vessle which passed the 18 inch drop test onto the wood bench. Now we have a similar pressure vessle. But the requirement from the customer has changed to 20g shock crash test. I am trying to figure out a connection between the 18 inch drop test and the 20g shock test to determine which test is more critical. Could someone please help me?
Thank you in advance for your help and time.

As a total outsider to this problem can I offer following trhought. The 20 g drop test will subject the vessel to 20 g
at point of impact. Suppose vessel weighs 1 ton then the impact creats 20 ton point load. can you not somehow support vessel and apply a 20 ton point load to demonstrate its strength and rigidity? Your original question can not be solved because depending on rigidity of vessel and its size
some point may suffer a 20 g deceleration on impact, but other parts may not. Why not ask your Client what he means ?
