Tank Design
The use of compressors in every industry, especially the manufacturing, mining, construction or automotive industries will become one of the primary needs. This is because the basic function of the compressor is to determine the movement of other pneumatic tools.
One of the important things in the use of compressors is that we can understand the design and type and technical operational system. In the operational process, as for the compressor parts that are very important to do the job, one of which is Air Tank. Which has potential parameters ranging from the shape of the storage tank. Starting from the material properties, and the final optimization of the product design, the desired prototype of the design.
Parameter Selection for Storage Tanks
Basically, pressure vessels can be made in various shapes. However dangerous consequences occur during the manufacturing and testing process of unconventionally shaped cylinders. The typical morphology of a pressure vessel inherently consists of a spherical, cylindrical, or conical shape.
Theoretically, cylindrical pressure vessels are more popular in the market. This is due to manufacturing inconveniences and larger diameter requirements. However, the material in pressure vessels has thin walls, even though it statically determines the analytical treatment at modest pressures.
Even so, the performance that static this also gives good results. Although statically indeterminate and analytical treatment involving complex functions. But the thick-walled cylinder produced accurate stress values.
Material Selection
Material properties are critical in driving the functional toughness of cylinders. Various mechanical and chemical parameters including economic feasibility are carefully taken into account, while identifying better materials.
