composite pressure vessel cng made of epoxy – carbon material with nonmetal liner is 60% lighter than aluminum vessel under the same conditions. one of the important parameters in the pressure vessels design is their resistance against impact and prevention of explosion. in this paper, the effects of low velocity impact on composite pressure vessel are investigated using fe analysis. the vessel...

Pressure vessel is a container used to store fluids under pressure and temperature. The fluids can be air, water, chemicals, fuel, gases etc. are most commonly used in food and chemical industries, oil refineries and so on. Pressure vessel is subjected to thermal and structural loads for power plant applications. Since the pressure vessel are subjected to both structural and thermal loads stres...

In this paper, a numerical analysis of stresses and displacements in FGM thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessel under internal pressure has been presented. The elastic modulus is assumed to be varying along the longitude of the pressure vessel with an exponential function continuously. The Poisson’s ratio is assumed to be constant. Whereas most of the previous studies about FGM thick-walled p...

shrink fit process is a useful technique in order to introduce beneficial residual stress in compound pressure vessels. in this paper, the effects of geometrical tolerances on residual stresses have been studied for a compound shrink fitted pressure vessel, practically. three layers, which are designed based on an optimum nominal thickness and overlap dimensions and tolerances, have been fitted...

background and objective: the circle of willis (cow) supports adequate blood supply to the brain. the cardiovascular system, in the current study, is modeled using an equivalent electronic system focusing on the cow. method: in our previous study we used 42 compartments to model whole car- diovascular system. in the current study, nevertheless, we extended our model by using 63 compartments to ...

in this paper, an experimental and numerical investigation into the effect of the hoop welding in metallic pressure vessel is presented. in the experimental manufacturing, hoop welding was used to attach the cylindrical body of the vessel, and the effect of welding into stress and strain distribution is carried out. experimental strains are obtained by using the strain gauges attached to predet...

In this paper, the effect of autofrettage process parameters on the ultimate pressure that functionally graded spherical vessel can tolerate are investigated. FGM properties and autofrettage pressure are considered as important parameters. Assumptions are variation of properties of FGM in radial direction, the residual stress in the absence of Bauschinger effect with the operation of variable m...
