Pressure Vessel Design, Guides & Procedures

In this modern age of industrial competition, a successful pressure vessel designer needs more than a knowledge and understanding of the fundamental sciences and mechanical engineering subjects related to pressure vessel design. He must also have the ability to apply this knowledge to practical situations for the purpose of an accurate and beneficial design of a pressure vessel.To achieve this goal, we present the book "Pressure Vessel Design, Guides & Procedures" which is co-authored by a group of well experienced mechanical engineers who work in the mechanical department of a company active in the petrochemical industry. The company; Hampa Energy Engineering & Design Company (HEDCO)(www.hedcoint.com).The main purpose of this book is to present the reader with guides, procedures, and design principles for pressure vessels to help enhance the understanding of the designing process in this field. An economical pressure vessel design can only be accomplished through the application of various theoretical principles combined with industrial and practical knowledge. Therefore, both theory and practice are emphasized in this book, and different aspects of various pressure vessel requirements are included. The book contains 10 chapters to cover all parts of designing and testing. To its advantages, each designing chapter includes some flowcharts as guides to illustrate a stepwise sequence of the design. Moreover, the designing chapters are supported by an example to clarify each step for designers. Consequently, the designing steps are instructed and outlined using PV-Elite software which can pave the way for the designers to use the software to solve their calculations with ease.Furthermore, the book would not only be suitable for pressure vessel designers; but can also be used by educators and students in their respective courses. When utilizing this textbook, a background in mechanical and material engineering is recommended. More Details: www.pv-book.com
