INTRODUCTION
• Generally considered as pressure vessel if
closed vessel with diameter > 150mm
pressure difference more than 0.5 bar
• Thin-walled vessel
Wall thickness : vessel diameter ratio is 1 : 10

INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
• Primary stress
- stress that are necessary to satisfy the conditions of static
equilibrium
- not self-limiting
- eg: membrane stresses induced by applied pressure
bending stresses due to wind loads
- if exceed yield point of material, gross distortion in extreme
situation will cause vessel failure
• Secondary stress
- arise from constraint of adjacent parts of the vessel
- self-limiting, local yielding or slight distortion will satisfy the
condition causing the stress
- eg: thermal stress, discontinuity between head and cylindrical
section
- failure will not occur in one application of loading, but repeated
pressure cycling can lead to fatigue failure

• Ratio of the knuckle to crown radii should not be less than 0.06, to
avoid buckling
• Crown radius should not be greater than the diameter of the
cylindrical section
