Scientific and Practical Principles for Determining Structural and Technological Parameters of Standardized All-Metal High Pressure Spherical Tanks

The statistical analysis of high pressure spherical tanks (HPST), series-produced in Russia, reveals correlations between the stored energy of the compressed gases and the design parameters of the tanks. It is established that deviations from the trend line values in the studied parameters are due to the operating conditions of the HPSTs. The algorithm of calculations of the design parameters for HPSTs based on the stored energy value is justified. A model range of parameters for standardized HPSTs is proposed.  It is shown that the use of welding technologies that increase the strength of the joints results in a significant decrease of the HPST weight, and improved stamping methods reduce the cost associated with machining of the elements of the hemispheres.
