Abstract
Compared to Butane tank, the propane tank should have a higher compressive strength due to its higher vapor pressure. In this study, a theoretical analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of change in the geometry of bottom plate on the mechanical property of tank, and an experiment was also carried out to observe the propensity of the deformation and failure of the vessel using hydraulic pressurizing device. The compressive strength of the vessel was observed to improve 1.5-2.5 MPa as the curvature of the bottom plate was decreased 62 mm and the thickness of the bottom plate was increased 0.25 mm. This study are expected to provide viable information conducive to achieve on-going development of a small vessel for the pressurized propane gas.
