Use process selection charts for the following question.
A pressure vessel is required for a hot-isostatic press or HIP. Materials for pressure
vessels were already studied and decided that steels are the best choice. The design asks
for a cylindrical pressure vessel with an inside radius R of 0.4 m and a height h of 2 m ,
with removable endcaps. See Figure 3.
Figure 3- A pressure vessel. The task is to form the cylinder; adding ports, threads, and
connections will be done later by machining.
It must safely contain a pressure p of 50 MPa . A steel with a yield strength sigma_(y)=500MPa
has been selected. The necessary wall thickness t is given approximately by equating the
hoop stress in the wall, pR//t, to the yield strength of the material of which it is made, sigma_(y),
divided by a safety factor S_(f) that we will take to be 2. The density of the steel is 8000
kg//m^(3).
Neither the precision nor the surface roughness of the vessel are important in selecting
the primary forming operation because the end faces and internal threads will be
machined, regardless of how it is made. The order is for 10 cylinders. What processes are
available to shape them?
