Hi everyone!
I am currently working on a technical analysis and need to determine the optimal geometry of a pressure vessel.
The vessel must contain a specific gas volume under pressure (including considerations for a hydraulic test. The test pressure is twice the working pressure). I have the material properties, such as admissible stress, elastic modulus, and Poisson’s ratio, as well as constraints on the vessel’s dimensions. While I have some experience with finite element analysis, I’m not entirely sure how to approach this problem. I understand that ASME codes provide relevant guidelines, but I’m feeling a bit lost on how to get started. Any suggestions, resources, or insights on how to tackle this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
