DESIGN OF PRESSURE VESSEL FOR IMPROVEMENT OF A SYSTEM IN A PROCESS UNIT

Vessels that carry, store, or get hold of fluids are known as pressure vessels. A pressure vessel is a containerwith a pressure differential between internal and outside. In the present paper, it has been discussed regarding the design of the pressure vessel according to the available code. New pressure vessels are being installed in a unit of petrochemical industry situated in Mangaluru, to fulfil the process requirement of the fluid which runs in the same unit. The design of pressure vessel is of most important in the industries, as failure of which will be hazardous and cause damage to the plant. This paper gives insight on how ASME section VIII division1 was used to carry outthe design of the particular pressure vessel.
