CHE211: Equipment Design (2016-17)

HA-5 : Due on 01.31.2017

# D 1.
A pressure vessel of 1.2 m nominal diameter is provided with a
welded flat plate cover on one end and a torispherical cover on
the other end. The maximum working pressure and
temperature are 500 kN/m2 and 250C respectively. Materials
for shell and closures are IS:2002-1962 grade 2B quality steel.
Assume 2 mm corrosion allowance. Design the heads. Do you
recommend the welded flat plate closure for the vessel?
# D 3.
Design a torispherical closure for a pressure vessel subjected
an internal pressure of 500 kN/m2 at 550 K. The nominal
diameter of the vessel is 2 m. The torisperical closure is having
inside crown radius 0.8 times the outside diameter and inside
corner radius 0.06 times the inside diameter. The material of
construction of the vessel and the head is steel conforming to
IS:2002-1962 grade 2A.
