Eccentric cone design to ASME VIII Div 1
Eccentric cone design to ASME VIII Div 1
(OP)
Hi folks,
Could someone give me a quick pointer to advise me if it is possible to design eccentric cones to ASME VIII Div 1. Is there an example calculation with formulas in the codebook etc.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

You can design the eccentric cone in the same manner as you design a concentric cone. For internal pressure design, use the largest alpha (half-apex angle) in the calculations. For external pressure design, determine the thicknesses for both the smallest and largest alpha in the calculations, and use the one with the greater thickness.
