In the same conditions, the accidents of pressure vessel are much higher than other mechanical equipment. Therefore, the study on the pressure vessels in anomaly conditions and the dynamic response and tolerance capabilities of the structure not only helps to the research and development of warning surveillance and prevention technology about pressure vessels in anomaly conditions, but also contribute to the correct evaluation of the feasibility and reliability on the device of early warning monitoring system and the prevent technology. As pressure vessel is widely used and efficiency is enhanced, traditional failure analysis is restricted to test, analyze accidents, find out failure reasons and table proposals. It is realistic to make a modern design system for pressure vessels, judge failure reasons rapidly and table proposals. Keywords: pressure vessel; modern design; working characteristics

It is a regular practice in the oil industry to modify mechanical equipment to incorporate new technologies and to optimize production. In the case of pressure vessels, it is occasionally required to cut large openings in their walls in order to have access to the interior part of the equipment for executing modifications. This cutting process produces temporary loads, which were obviously not considered in the original mechanical design. Up to now, there is not a general purpose specification for approaching the assessments of stress levels once a large opening in a vertical pressure vessel has been made. Therefore stress distributions around large openings are analyzed on a case-by-case basis without a reference scheme. This work studies the distribution of the von Mises equivalent stresses around a large opening in FCC Regenerators during internal cyclone replacement, which is a frequently required practice for this kind of equipment. A finite element parametric model was developed in ANSYS, and both numerical results and illustrating figures are presented.

Media Pressure

Pressure vessel is not only the equipment used in the process industrial production, but also a more vulnerable to accidents special equipment. Under normal circumstances, in addition to bear the majority of media pressure, pressure vessels usually accompanied by the joint role of the high temperature, high pressure or media corrosion. Therefore, the design on the pressure vessels in anomaly conditions and the dynamic response not only helps to the research and development of warning surveillance and prevention technology about pressure vessels in anomaly conditions, but also contribute to the correct evaluation of the feasibility and reliability.So the simulated annealing algorithm based on penalty strategy is adopted to solver the optimization model of pressure vessels.

The design of pressure vessel is an extremely professional job which has heavy workload, repeated work, and rich accumulated knowledge, and it has good characteristics of serialization, generalization, standardization. Generic 3D CAD systems are not suitable for pressure vessel design. On the contrary, customized development based on 3D CAD system is needed. In this paper, a new pressure vessel design system based on Chinese 3D CAD system named SINOVATION was developed to improve design efficiency and accuracy. First, the functions and construction of pressure vessel design system were presented with the analysis of the traditional design process of pressure vessels. Second, related design specifications were managed and used flexibly in pressure vessel design system, and general parts library and standard parts library were established to improve parts reuse and accumulation. Finally, a guiding design mode was accepted for typical vessels and components to design same product series while direct modeling function was used for atypical pressure vessels. The results show that this method is helpful for embedded use of design specifications, standards and knowledge, and also provides an extensive interface for product updates and diversification. Statistical data reports and accurate engineering drawings are generated automatically based on 3D models. The quality, efficiency, and consistence are greatly improved. With the implementation and application, the system has been highly commended by customers in Chinese pressure vessel industry, especially in petrochemical industry.

The purpose of this study is to develop the integrated design system of supports, which are turning roller, dent pad and bracing pipe to control distortion of the pressure vessel. The optimum design condition for each support was established by analytical solution and finite element analysis with simple model and verified by comparing with the results of FEA for actual model. Based on the results, the Window-based computer program was developed using Visual C++. The program supports component feature-based modeling. In addition, user can easily determine the condition of supports and jigs during manufacturing of pressure vessels with user-friendly functions such as the material database of ASME, easy input, and detail output.

Carbide Content

Temper embrittlement is a common damage mechanism of pressure vessels in the chemical and petrochemical industry serviced in high temperature, which results in the reduction of roughness due to metallurgical change in some low alloy steels. Pressure vessels that are temper embrittled may be susceptible to brittle fracture under certain operating conditions which cause high stress by thermal gradients, e.g., during start-up and shutdown. 2.25Cr1-Mo steel is widely used to make hydrogenation reactor due to its superior combination of high mechanical strength, good weldability, excellent high temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA) and oxidation-resistance. However, 2.25Cr-1Mo steel is particularly susceptible to temper embrittlement. In this paper, the effect of carbide on temper embrittlement of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel was investigated. Mechanical properties and the ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel were measured by tensile test and impact test. The tests were performed at two positions (base metal and weld metal) and three states (original, step cooling treated and in-service for a hundred thousand hours). The content and distribution of carbides were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The content of Cr and Mo elements in carbide was measured by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS). The results showed that the embrittlement could increase the strength and reduce the plasticity. Higher carbide contents appear to be responsible for the higher DBTT. The in-service 2.25Cr-1Mo steel showed the highest DBTT and carbide content, followed by step cooling treated 2.25Cr-1Mo steel, while the as-received 2.25Cr-1Mo steel has the minimum DBTT and carbide content. At the same time, the Cr and Mo contents in carbide increased with the increasing of DBTT. It is well known that the specimen analyzed by SEM is very small in size, sampling SEM specimen is convenient and nondestructive to pressure vessel. Therefore, the relationship between DBTT and the content of carbide offers a feasible nondestructive method for quantitative measuring the temper embrittlement of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel pressure vessel.

Fatigue Life Evaluation

Pressure vessels are subjected to repeated loads during use and charging, which can causefine physical damage even in the elastic region. If the load is repeated under stress conditions belowthe yield strength, internal damage accumulates. Fatigue life evaluation of the structure of thepressure vessel using finite element analysis (FEA) is used to evaluate the life cycle of the structuraldesign based on finite element method (FEM) technology. This technique is more advanced thanfatigue life prediction that uses relational equations. This study describes fatigue analysis to predictthe fatigue life of a pressure vessel using stress data obtained from FEA. The life prediction results areuseful for improving the component design at a very early development stage. The fatigue life of thepressure vessel is calculated for each node on the model, and cumulative damage theory is used tocalculate the fatigue life. Then, the fatigue life is calculated from this information using the FEanalysis software ADINA and the fatigue life calculation program WINLIFE.

Increasing use of high-strength steels in pressure-vessel design has resulted from emphasis on decreasing the weight of pressure vessels for certain applications. To demonstrate the suitability of a 140-ksi yield strength steel for use in unwelded pressure vessels, HY-140(T)—a quenched and tempered 5Ni-Cr-Mo-V steel—was fabricated and subjected to various burst and fatigue tests, as well as to various laboratory tests. In general, results of the investigation indicated very good tensile, Charpy, Nil Ductility Transition Temperature (NDT), low-cycle fatigue, and stress-corrosion properties of HY-140(T) steels, as well as very good burst tests results, in comparison with existing high-yield strength pressure-vessel steels. The results also indicate that the HY-140(T) steel should be an excellent material for its originally designed purpose, Naval hull applications.

The fracture probability of a boiling water reactor pressure vessel for a domestic nuclear power plant in Taiwan has been numerically analyzed using an advanced version of ORNL’s FAVOR code. First, a model of the vessel beltline region, which includes all shell welds and plates, is built for the FAVOR code based on the plant specific parameters of the reactor pressure vessel. Then, a novel flaw model which describes the flaw types of surface breaking flaws, embedded weld flaws and embedded plate flaws are simulated along both inner and outer vessel walls. When conducting the fracture probability analyses, a transient low temperature over-pressure event, which has previously been shown to be the most severe challenge to the integrity of boiling water reactor pressure vessels, is considered as the loading condition. It is found that the fracture occurs in the fusion-line area of axial welds, but with only an insignificant failure probability. The low through-wall cracking frequency indicates that the analyzed reactor pressure vessel maintains sufficient stability until either the end-of-license or for doubling of the present license of operation.
