Abstract |
|
This paper contains the design of thin cylinder vertical pressure vessel, Finite Element Analysis of Nozzle-Head junction and sensitivity study to improve the fatigue life of vessel by changing the radius of fillet at nozzle-head junction. The design is carried out by pressure vessel design software PV Elite as per SEC. VIII, Division-1. The FEA analysis and sensitivity study are carried out by creo-2.0. Here we have evaluated the fatigue life of component by fatigue analysis using creo-2.0. We know that the fatigue is the cycle-dependent phenomenon. Corrosion can reduce fatigue life by pitting the surface and propagating cracks. Peak stresses are the additional stresses due to stress intensification in highly localized areas. Peak stresses are only significant in fatigue conditions and brittle materials |
