Term Work - 3 (External Pressure Design and Nozzle Reinforcement)

Marks = 5+5 (Submission date: 27 February 2015)
(A) External Pressure Design (5 marks)
Check design of a pressure vessel specified in datasheet AK-040504-MS-803 Rev.1.
1. Consider internal and external design pressure in MPa as:
(value given in datasheet in MPa + 2*E/100) where E = last two digits of your examination seat
number. For example, if seat no. is MMMII008 then E=08.
2. Calculate shell thickness under internal and external pressure
3. Calculate shell thickness in the presence of 2 rows of stiffener rings. Compute dimensions of
stiffening rings.
Allowable stresses: SA 516 Gr 70: 140 MPa at design temperatures
(B) Nozzle Reinforcement (5 marks)
1. A cylindrical vessel with hemi-spherical heads has following specification.
Inner shell diameter =1500 mm
Design internal pressure = (0.5+2*E/100) MPa, where E = last two digits of your
examination seat number. For example, if seat no. is MMMII008 then E=08
Crown radius = 1500 mm
Inner diameter of nozzle (one each on shell and head) = 200 mm
Height of nozzle above external vessel wall = 100 mm
Height of nozzle inside inner vessel wall = 12 mm
Corrosion allowance = NIL
Permissible stress for shell, head, nozzle = 140 MPa
Provide shell and head thicknesses close to minimum required value. Calculate dimensions of
reinforcement pad. Assume pad material and thickness same as that of the shell material.
2. A vessel has a 1000 mm inside diameter with internal design pressure of 1 MPa and an allowable
stress of 100 MPa at design temperature. The vessel wall thickness is 6 mm. A nozzle pipe with
an inside diameter of 200 mm connects at an angle of 75 (see figure). Determine the
reinforcement requirements. Corrosion allowance is 1 mm. Consider leg size of fillet welds =
minimum thickness of plates being joined.
