Hello!
I'm currently working on the design of a relatively high pressure vessel: a 20cm-inside-diameter and 45-inside-height vessel containing 1000bar oxygen.
My goal, here, is to make my own idea of the beast first and to evaluate grossly its cost. Fully detailed design would be contracted afterwards to real professionals.
I was wondering if anyone could advise me on books or other ressources that would help me in my task. I was able, with the help of ASME BVPC Sec8 Div3 and a few other ressources, to dimension the cylindrical vessel, but it seems to me that vessels with a diameter ratio greater than 1.5 are rather rarely mentionned in the litterature. I really have some trouble with the design I should give to the cover and how I should take into account openings due to instrumentation inserts and windows.
So far, I'm looking at 20cm-inside-diameter and 60cm-outside-diameter (Diam ratio of 3) in Inconnel 718 (for the oxygen) which gives me, according to ASME, a rupture pressure of 8000bars (8-to-1 security factor).
Anyway, thank you for your time,
Denis Maloir
