internal pressure P: bar

- ASME Code - Allowable Stresses

Stress Values- Section II, Table 1A eff. gasket diameter G: mm

Stress Values- Section II, Table 1B

axial force Fax: N
Stress Values- Section II, Table 3
Moment M1: Nm
Carbon Steel - Example

High Alloy Steel - Example

Moment M2: Nm

- Shells and Heads

Intermediate Results
Cylinder under internal pressure
resulting moment: Mres = √(M12+M22) = 13038.4 Nm
Elliptical head under internal pressure
pressure (moment): Pm = 16*Mres/(π*G3) = 0.118 MPa
Torispherical head under internal pressure

Klöpperboden (DIN28011) under internal pressure

pressure (force): Pr = 4*Fax/(π*G2) = 0.2018 MPa
