Abstract

Pressure vessels are mainly used to store gas or liquid at particular pressure and temperature. In this work ASME calculations were carried out for spherical pressure vessel from sec viii div ii to calculate thickness of the vessel and nozzle thickness and supporting calculations were carried out to design the suitable supporting column to withstand the entire load. By considering the thickness values from ASME calculations spherical pressure vessel is designed from CATIA V5 R20.Static analysis and buckling analysis were carried out in ANSYS 15.0. since the observed stress are above the allowable in the 15 mm model the model is redesigned for 17mm shell thickness and buckling analysis were carried out for with and without wind conditions. The load multiplier values from buckling analysis are validated with the design factor from ASME
