EXTERNAL PRESSURE CALCULATION FOR DISH HEAD

1) Deviation (e) and Chord Length for Vessel Head

Corroded Thickness (t )= ts-CA
= 10-0 = 10 mm
Ts=Nominal Thickness
CA= Corrosion Allowance
Outside Diameter of Boot Head (D0 )=I.D + 2 * ts
= 1050 + (2 * 10)
D0 = 1070 mm
Total Length (L) = T/L to T/L + (2* h/3)
h= I.D/4 mm
h= 1050 / 4 = 262.5 mm
h/3=262.5/3 = 87.5 mm
L= 1600 + (2 * 87.5)
L = 1775 mm
L/D0 = 1775 / 1070
= 1.658
D0 /t = 1070 / 10
= 107.0
For Head
As per UG-81 (a) The Deviation should not be more than 1.25% D
Where D is the Nominal inside Diameter
Permissible Deviation e = 0.0125 * 1050
e = 13.125 mm
As per UG-81 (b)
For Head it is considered as 0.5 for L/D0
L/D0= 0.5
e = 0.40 * t
= 0.40 * 10
e = 4.0 mm
and Arc Length =0.2 * D0
= 0.2 * 1070
= 214 mm
Chord Length = 2* Arc Length
= 2 * 214
Chord Length = 428 mm
