The Fatigue Analysis of Pressure Vessels Based on Workbench

Abstract:

With the rapid development of petrochemical industry, the operation condition of pressure vessels under the alternating load was increasing and the probability of fatigue failure was also on the rise. As a result, pressure vessel fatigue analysis is gaining the designer's attention. This paper describes the key steps and techniques of the fatigue analysis of pressure vessel based on Workbench platform using the lock hopper of the coal chemical industry as an example.
