In this paper, the authors demonstrate a new idea to take the place of the real pressure vessel test, which should be carried out in a high pressure experiment unit before the real sea trial test. The idea is to make a pressure vessel model as a replica of the real pressure vessel test, which can reduce the cost of making a pressure vessel and large pressure experiment unit. The pressure vessel model was designedbased on linear-elastic, buckling equations and Finite Element Analysis. The manufactured pressure vessel model was investigated and monitored while the pressure test was being conducted. After the test, the result and the validity of the pressure vessel model as a replica of the real pressure vessel test was studied.

압력용기의 내압은 압력용기 설계의 중요한 인자이며 이를 바탕으로 관련 설계기준 및 구조해석결과에 따라 압력용기의 두께 및 직경과 같은 기하학적 형상이 결정된다. 그러나 압력용기 내부에서 폭굉이 일어날 경우 이 폭굉압력을 적절히 고려하여 압력용기를 설계할 수 있는 설계기준은 미흡한 실정이다. 일반적으로 폭굉이 발생할 경우, 초기 폭굉압력이 용기 벽면에 도달하여 반사하는 반사압력은 초기압력의 2배 이상이라고 알려진다. 그러나 폭굉압력은 구조물의 고유주기보다도 짧은 시간 안에 최대치에 도달한 후 급격하게 감소하는 경향을 보이며, 이 경우 실제 용기벽면이 받게 되는 압력은 반사압력에 비해 매우 작을 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 폭굉의 특성을 고려하여 압력용기가 견뎌야 하는 적절한 등가의 폭굉압력을 산정하는 방법을 제안함으로써 폭굉을 고려한 효율적인 압력용기 설계기준을 제시하고자 하였다.

Elastic-plastic stress analysis has been performed to evaluate the fatigue life of an autofrettaged pressure vessel containing cross-bores subjected to pulsating internal pressure of 200 MPa. Finite element analyses were used to calculate the residual and operating stress distributions of the pressure vessel due to the autofrettage process and pulsating internal pressure, respectively. Theoretical stress concentration factors of 3.06, 2.58, and 2.64 were obtained at the cross-bore of the pressure vessel due to internal pressure, 50%, and 100% autofrettage loadings, respectively. Local stresses and local strains determined from the elastic-plastic finite element analysis were employed to calculate the failure location and fatigue life of the pressure vessel with radial cross-bores, incorporating the low-cycle fatigue properties of the pressure vessel steel and fatigue damage parameters. Increase in the amount of overstrain by autofrettage process moved the crack initiation location from the inner radius toward a mid-wall, and extended the crack initiation life. Predicted fatigue life of the fully autofrettaged pressure vessel with cross-bores increased about 50%, compared to the unautofrettaged pressure vessel. At the autofrettage level higher than 50%, the failure location and fatigue life of the pressure vessel were not significantly influenced by the autofrettage level.

This study presents thickness optimization for the pressure vessel domes subject to internal pressure and axial force simultaneously. The considered typical pressure vessel domes are ellipsoidal and tori-spherical domes with skirt and nozzle part. These pressure vessel domes under loading have higher stress concentration on geometric discontinuity parts. Therefore, thickness optimization of axi-symmetric pressure vessel domes is essentially concerned on minimizing this stress concentration. The objective function is minimization of weight of pressure vessel dome. The design variable is thickness of dome and cylinder. Considered constraint is Von Mises equivalent stress. In the optimization procedure, ANSYS code is used. The equivalent and hoop stress of original shape domes are compared with those of optimal shape domes. And optimal thicknesses for pressure vessel domes are presented.

The purpose of this study is to present a methodology to estimate the capacity of the pressure relief valve which prevents overpressure of the pressure vessel in a cold state. In this methodology, the transient behavior of the flow rate through the pressure relief valve and the pressure inside the pressure vessel are considered. The result of this study shows the followings; The more the relief valve capacity is considered in excess, the more the initial relief flow rate and the initial pressure inside the pressure vessel are high and low respectively. When the relief valve capacity is determined properly, the pressure inside the pressure vessel maintains almost the same value, so the ASME code requirement will be met.

In this paper the LNG vessel of the Moss type which is capable of lifting 15,261 tons is investigated in the view point of the pressure vessel preliminary design using the finite element method. The Pressure vessel design is based on the equivalent stress levels due to the internal pressure. The finite element model of the spherical pressure vessel is configured using 4 noded quadrilateral shell element. The finite element analysis program NASTRAN and ANSYS 5.5are implemented. The design is compared with the three kinds of the boundary condition : first, where the equator of the pressure vessel is fixed, and where the top and is fixed, and, the bottom end is fixed, respectively. A comparison is presented between the results obtained by the finite element model and by the prototype production model. Additionally just below position(case 1 & case 2) of equator ring was carried out by using ANSYS 5.5. The results show that the vessel design based on the stress is acceptable at the preliminary design.

Tumor hemodynamics in vascular state is numerically simulated using pressure node solution. The tumor angiogenesis pattern in our previous study is used for the geometry of vessel networks. For tumor angiogenesis, the equation that governed angiogenesis comprises a tumor angiogenesis factor (TAF) conservation equation in time and space, which is solved numerically using the Galerkin finite element method. A stochastic process model is used to simulate vessel formation and vessel. In this study, we use a two-dimensional model with planar vessel structure. Hemodynamics in vessel is assumed as incompressible steady flow with Newtonian fluid properties. In parent vessel, arterial pressure is assigned as a boundary condition whereas a constant terminal pressure is specified in tumor inside. Kirchhoff's law is applied to each pressure node to simulate the pressure distribution in vessel networks. Transient pressure distribution along with angiogenesis pattern is presented to investigate the effect of tumor growth in tumor hemodynamics.

In this research, for the smart health monitoring of the hydrogen storage high pressure composite vessel, the feasibility study of an embedded fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensor is carried out. To verify strain measurement in various temperature environment which is needed for the hydrogen pressure vessel, tensile test of a composite specimen with both an embedded FBG sensor and a strain gauge is made in low temperature. Before we try a real-size hydrogen storage pressure vessel, a small & cheap composite pressure vessel having the same structure is fabricated with embedded FBG sensors and tested. In the case of an aluminum liner inside the vessel, survivability of FBG sensors at the interface is lower than the other areas.

The main objective of this paper is to search whether containment vessel's best pressure may increase until how long when loss of coolant accident (LOCA) happened in containment vessel of Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 and 2. Another goal of this research is to find the influential factors that increase containment vessel pressure. Model for this research is Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 with 10 cycles. Data were collected by simulator of Ulchin nuclear power plant 1 and design of experiment was used for data analysis. For the experiment, seven factors that are going to influence in containment vessel pressure were chosen. It was found that fatter which influences in early rise of containment vessel pressure after LOCA is only explosion size. Also, containment vessel's best pressure (3.74 bar.a) was much lower than limit (4.86 bar.a) of FSAR (Final Safety Analysis Report).

섬유 방향 강성과 강도는 복합재 압력 용기의 성능과 밀접한 관계를 갖기 때문에, 압력 용기 구조 설계시에 다른 물성들보다 중요 설계 인자가 된다. 즉 복합재 압력 용기의 내압 변형 및 파열 압력은 섬유 물성에 의해 큰 영향을 받는다. 그러므로 정확한 섬유 방향 물성을 측정할 수 있는 기법을 확립하는 것이 복합재 압력 용기 설계 전에 우선되어야 한다. 그러나 복합재 압력용기의 섬유 방향 물성은 제작 공정 변수(와인딩 장비, 작업자, 작업환경 등)와 크기 효과에 의해 큰 영향을 받으므로 기존의 시편 시험 방법으로는 정확한 섬유 방향 물성 측정이 어렵다. 섬유 물성을 측정하는 가장 이상적인 시험 방법은 실물 압력용기 파괴시험이지만 많은 비용이 소요되어, 제품으로부터 다량의 링 시편을 채취, 내압 시험을 할 수 있는 Hoop ring 시험 방법이 제시되었다. Hoop ring 시험과 실물 압력용기의 수압 파괴 시험으로부터 구한 섬유 방향 물성들은 근접된 좋은 일치를 나타내었다.
