    This document discusses ellipsoidal heads used in pressure vessels. Ellipsoidal heads have a 2:1 elliptical profile that is commonly used. The thickness of a 2:1 ellipsoidal head can be calculated using a formula that considers the inside diameter or major axis length, internal pressure, and other constants.

    16. Ellipsoidal head


    These types of head consists of 2:1 ellipse profile as shown in figure. These
    types of heads are widely used in pressure vessel.

    The thickness of the 2:1 ellipsoidal defined will be determined with the help
    of given formula.

    T=
    +c.a.
    2se 0.2p
    D= inside diameter of the head / inside length of the major axis.
