Abstract

Cylindrical pressure vessels are being used in different industrial applications like power plants, chemical and processes plants to store and use fluids and liquids. The thermal, fatigue and static stress analysis has been carried out on cylindrical pressure vessels for a given geometry with different materials. Buckling analysis also carried out to find the satiability of the cylindrical pressure vessel with hemispherical domes. The generalized finite element code with Ansys is used to perform the above analysis. The static analysis is to determine the stress, deformation and strain. Fatigue analysis is performed to determine life, damage and safety factor of the pressure vessel using AISI-1513 steel, carbon fiber and E-glass fiber-reinforced materials. Thermal analysis has been carried out to find the temperature gradients and rate of heat transfer per unit area of the pressure vessel using AISI-1513 steel, carbon fiber and E-glass fiber materials. Buckling analysis of pressure vessel has been carried out with AISI-1513 steel and with the laminated composite material. Comparisons are made after performing static, fatigue and thermal analysis with different materials.
