Calculating pressure vessel shell thickness, from datasheet to fabrication drawing
Shell thickness isn't just a number on a drawing — it's the result of a chain of engineering decisions. This article walks the same path the technical office walks for every project.
Hydrotest, radiography, ultrasonic, liquid penetrant, magnetic particle and vacuum box. Each finds a particular defect and none can replace another. Here we compare them.
