DESIGN AND LINEAR LAYER ANALYSIS OF PRESSURE VESSEL BY USING COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Abstract

This study analyses the strength of a pressure vessel that was built with weld effectivity in mind and then tested using the ANSYS finite element analysis program. When a company targets the design characteristics of a pressure vessel according to the intended weld successfully, mathematical correlations are likely to be included. We will be using CATIA for our modeling. The pressure vessel will undergo structural and thermal study in ANSYS for several materials.The thermal analysis was used in this research to find out how the heat was distributed and how much heat was transferred per unit area at various materials such as e-glass, carbon fiber, and steel.It is necessary to do static and linear layer analyses in order to ascertain the strain, deformation, and stress at various stacking levels, including 3, 6, 9, and 12
