Background

Pressure vessels are used in a wide number of industries, which are


first the power generation industry for fossil and nuclear power.
Secondly, they are used in the petrochemical industry for storing
and processing crude petroleum oil in tank farms as well as storing
gasoline in service stations.Pressure vessels came out in various
shapes and sizes. The designation and geometry of pressure vessels
vary according to standards in the industries. Therefore, this
project uses the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII Division 1 as the
standard. It is crucial for the engineers to have engineering software
application to ease their work in designing the pressure vessels
these days. Therefore, this project is very important as the project is
to design a support system for the pressure vessel design.
