Study on a Large Opening in a Pressure Vessel

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper ,we ared study on the reinforcement of a large opening with which the opening ratio is (W)0.8 with numerical calculation. We analyzed the Mechanical characteristics of opened shell It shows the stress concentration is seen clearly on point A which is between Connecting Inside surface of pipe and shell ,and point B, which is between Connecting outside surface of pipe and shell. And the stress concentration on point A is more than on point A when the opening ration(W) is 0.8.And it is calculated reinforcing effect and analyze the limitation when the opening ration by pressure area method(Referred to PAM).It is obtained the limitation of PAM by comparing numerical calculation to PAM.
