Head (vessel)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steel Pressure Vessel

The end caps on a cylindrically shaped Pressure vessel are commonly known as heads.
[edit]Head

shapes

The shape of the heads used can vary. The most common[1][2][3] head shapes are: Hemispherical head A sphere is the ideal shape for a head, because the pressure in the vessel is divided equally across the surface of the head. The radius (r) of the head equals the radius of the cylindrical part of the vessel. Ellipsoidal head This is also called a 2:1 elliptical head. The shape of this head is more economical, because the height of the head is just a quarter of the diameter. Its radius varies between the major and minor axis. Torispherical head These heads have a dish with a fixed radius (r1), the size of which depends on the type of torispherical head.[4] The transition between the cylinder and the dish is called the knuckle. The knuckle has a toroidal shape. The most common types of torispherical heads are:

Klpper head

This is a torispherical head. The dish has a radius that equals the diameter of the cylinder it is attached to (r1 = Do). The knuckle has a radius that equals a tenth of the diameter of the cylinder ( ), hence its alternative designation "Decimal head". Also other sizes are: (lets say h2) Korbbogen head ,[5](page13) rest of height .

This is a torispherical head. The radius of the dish is 80% of the diameter of the cylinder ( ). The radius of the knuckle is ( ). Also other sizes are: , rest of height (lets say h2) . This shape[6] finds its origin in architecture.[7] Flat head This is a head consisting of a toroidal knuckle connecting to a flat plate. This type of head is typically used for the bottom of cookware.

Pans typically have a bottom in the shape of a flat head

Diffuser head This type of head is often found on the bottom of aerosol spray cans. It is an inverted torispherical head.

Conical head This is a cone-shaped head.
