Step by step to calculate thickness of shell under external pressure for Do/t >= 10
Step 1 Assume t & calculate L/Do, Do/t
t 8 mm
L/Do 2.001633987
Do/t 102
Step 2 Go to ASME Sec.II.D Subpart 3 fig. G, define L/Do
L/Do 2.001633987 max 50, min 0.05
Step 3 Define factor A from Fig. G.
A 0.00062
Step 4 Define applicable figure and E to define factor B
Figure CS2
E 199948.04 MPa 29000 ksi 29000000 psi
Step 5 Define factor B from suitable figure
B 8800
Step 6 Calculate eMAWP using factor B
Max allowable ext. working pressure Pa 115.03 MPa 4B / 3 (Do/t)
Step 7 Calculate eMAWP using factor A if factor B can't be determined
Max allowable ext. working pressure Pa 0.8102 MPa 2AE / 3 (Do/t)
Step 8 Iterate t value until eMAWP is equal to or greater than P
Pa>P? feasible
