Hello colleagues,

Considering the need to design an external heating coil in a pressure vessel as shown in the attached image, and taking into account the practical possibility of using a rectangular section as shown in the same image, I have the following doubt:

how to obtain the allowed pressure inside the coil? I'm not sure which way to go within the following options defined in the EE appendix - paragraph 3:

quote

EE-3 JACKETS WITH OTHER GEOMETRIES
For other jacket geometries such as shown in Figure
EE-5, the permissible pressure P ′ may be obtained from
the rules of UG-47 for stayed construction or 9-5 for
jacketed vessels.

All the best

See 9-5 (c)(3) and sketch (b-3)
Try to understand.

hello, r6155 and everyone

Thanks for your orientation. I got it.

maybe my lack of conviction in adopting this chapter would be linked to the understanding of heating coils like jackets. I mean: in my little knowledge, I would think if there would be some code case, interpretation or another place to deal specifically with heating coils.

thanks a lot
