Shell Thickness Calculations:

MOC : IS 2062 Gr B
Allowable Stress Value : 13.67 Kg f/mm2
‘t sh’ = p Di / [200 f J – p]

p = 5 Kgf/ mm2

Di = 2500 mm-inside diameter

f = 13.67 Kg f/mm2; maximum allowable stress

J = joint efficiency = 0.85

∴‘t sh’ = 5.392 mm

∴‘t sh’including corrosion allowance of 1.5 mm = 5.392 mm + 1.5 mm = 6.892 mm;

Shell plate thickness offered, 8 mm : 8

Dished End thickness Calculations:

Type of dished end: 2:1 Ellipsoidal

Assumed thickness: 6 mm

p = 5 Kgf/mm2;

DI = 2500 mm;

Dο = outside diameter = 2512 mm;

Ca = corrosion allowance

hE Calculations:

hE = 0.25 Dο= 628 mm

‘t’dish = [ p Dο C ] / [200 f J]

C = from fig for shape factor from code book.


hE/ Dο = 0.25; t / Dο = 0.002388; C = 1.3; J = 1; f=13.67

‘t’dish = 5.97 mm; ‘t’dish offered = 5.97 + 19(thinning) + 1.5(ca) =8.47 mm;

Plate offered = 10 mm.
