Abstract

The Multi-layer pressure vessel are used as an alternative solution to Mono-block pressure vessel, as this vessel will be design as per peak thermal loading cases where, chances of disaster and explosions are more. In order to avoid the same, the Multi-layered PVwill be designed and analyzed using ANSYS and the results will be provided to the industry for fabrication. Along with the thermal stresses, maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) and keeping the corrosive nature of the handling fluid in mind the analysis has been done. The pressure vessel has been analyzed for the operating fluid of Ethylene Oxide and taking into consideration its adverse effects, the pressure vessel i.e., mono block pressure has been multi-layered for optimizing the thickness and to prevent the same for and sort of failure. In high-pressure applications, multi-layering of pressure vessels is quite beneficial.
