Low pressure vessel
Low pressure vessel
(OP)
Hello
I need to design a small atmospheric vessel with the characteristic below
Diameter 400 mm
length 680
The rang of internal pressure : [ - 50 mbar , 100 mbar ]
external pressure : atmospheric
When i apply the ASME Viii div 1 rules i find too small value of the thickness
There is another code applicable for this vessel type?

And as LittleInch mentioned, the reality of fabrication will start to dictate at the thinner sizes. Handling a pieces of flimsy gauge steel can be a real pain, so we would normally just oversize slightly to a standard pipe size or plate thickness.
