Given:
A spherical tank 15 mm thick has an internal pressure of 5 MPa. The joint efficiency is 96% and the stress is limited to 46.88 MPa. Find the maximum diameter of the vessel (mm).
Choices:
540mm
450 mm
405mm
504 mm
(Answer seems to be 540mm ,But which formula Should used? since efficiency given)
A steam boiler, d meter in diameter and L m in length, is made of hard steel,
generates steam at a gauge pressure of p N/mm2
. Assuming the efficiency of the
riveted joints as e %. It is closed at both ends by flat cover plates which are
made of Mild steel and freely supported.
1. Determine the wall thickness of the cylinder if the ultimate tensile stress = A
MPa and factor of safety = B.
2. Calculate the minimum thickness necessary of the cover plates with uniformly
distributed load, if the the yield point stress is C MPa and factor of safety of F.
3. Also find the increase in internal diameter, the increase in length and the
increase in volume. Take E = 200 kN/mm2 and u = 0.3.
d= 1.1
L= 1.54 ; p= 5.68 ; A= 328
B= 4.6
; C= 494
; F = 3 e= 69
A 50 inches diameter storage tank is used to store air at an internal pressure of 625 psi with a FS = 4.5 based on ultimate strength. If the welded joints have a joint strength efficiency of 80% and the steel used to create the tank hasan equivalent strength similar to C1118,a. find a suitable plate thickness of the tank. Compare the stresses for both diametral section and longitudinal sectionb. Using the thickness solved in (a), determine the pressure to cause actual failure to the vessel
