Abstract
Composite pressure vessels have found unique place in industrial, commercial, research and defence applications due to their higher efficiency and good resistance under hard working conditions. The composite gas cylinder is about 70% lighter than steel and about 30 to 50 percent lighter than aluminium lined tanks. According to unique capabilities of composite pressure vessels, especially significant weight saving and special application various research and studies were done on this kind of pressure vessels.
