Experimental Method to Analyse Limit Load in Pressure Vessel
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 10
Abstract
Pressure vessel contains with different inlet & outlet openings called nozzle or valves. The design parameter of these valves may different in one pressure vessel. These valves cause geometric discontinuity of the pressure vessel wall hence stress concentration may occur around the valve or nozzle. Since due to the high stress concentration there may be the chances of failure of vessel junction. Hence detail stress distribution analysis needs to be done for pressure vessel. Determination of limit pressure at different location on pressure vessel by using finite element method is less time consuming and it avoid complex mathematical work at difficult geometries. So, it is essential to validate the result. Experiments is conducted on oblique nozzle (450 with shell axis) & result obtained are used to validate the finite element results. Distortion measurement test by measuring change in diameter of vessel after vessel is pressurized using water. Twice elastic slope method & Tangent intersection method are used to find out limit load estimation of cylindrical vessel with oblique (450 ) nozzle.
