Analysis of Life of Pressure Vessel

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

Pressure Vessels are storage tanks which were constructed to keep liquids, vapors, or gases at very high pressures, usually over 15 psig. Few Examples of general pressure storage tanks used in the petro refining and chemically processing companies include, but are not limited to, containers, boilers, and heat exchangers. Each storage tank has its own operating limits construct in by design that it is to work in the, referred to as its designed pressure and designed temperature. Operating outside of these type of limits could damage the equipments, potentially lead to loss of containment as otherwise catastrophic failure. Because of they working with in immense pressures and a ruptured pressure vessel could be incredibly high dangerous and leading to poison gas leaks, fires, and even explosions can happen. For these reasons, pressure vessel safety is high imperative. There are several standards and practices that cover the construction, maintenance, and inspection of pressure vessels. The Chief among these standards are ASME Section VIII and API 510. Corrosion forming over the life of a storage tank is catered for by a corrosion limit, the design value of which depends upon the storage tank duty and the corrosiveness of its content.
