Sizing pressure vessel
Sizing pressure vessel
(OP)
Hi everyone,
I need to size a vessel under a pressure of 15 bar and a has a volume of 400 L. Does anyone know the steps to follow in order to calculate the thickness of the vessel and the details of welding.
A design calculation will be helpful.
Thank you

What other details do i need to mention ?

Please get help from someone local with experience in this, as it's vastly more complex than you imagine right now.
Besides design, there is welding procedures, material selection, reinforcement of nozzle holes, ... To think of, which you won't find on an internet forum.

RE: Sizing pressure vessel
1) Hire a competent pressure vessel designer equipped with experience and software for design of your vessel. They will request whatever data is required to complete the design.
2) Send the results to an experienced and ASME accredited vessel manufacturer
3) Hire a competent 3rd party inspector to review the design and inspect the vessel during manufacture and approval by the relevant local vessel authority
4) Ensure your system is designed not to overpressure the vessel under any circumstance
Failure to do 1,2,3 or 4 leads to potential explosion, lawsuits and imprisonment. Of you.
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

A better method would be to contact a certified ASME tank manufacturer and ask him to size the tank for you.
