    Spherical Shells

    The document contains calculations for determining the required thickness of a spherical shell made of a specific material with an inside diameter of 800mm. It provides values for calculation temperature, test temperature, calculation pressure, test pressure, material properties, and joint coefficient. The calculations determine the maximum nominal design stress under normal operating conditions and testing conditions. Based on these stresses and the pressures/diameter, it then calculates the required thicknesses as 3.983mm for normal operation and 2.749mm for testing. It confirms both thicknesses meet the requirement that the thickness divided by the diameter plus twice the thickness must be less than or equal to 0.16.
