Shells under Internal Pressure according to EN 13445
Why take this course?
This self-paced engineering course provides a practical introduction to calculating pressure vessel wall thickness in accordance with the EN 13445 design code. Participants will explore key topics such as design rules for cylinders and cones, formed torispherical ends, thin-walled versus thick-walled vessels using Lame's formula, and determining the Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). The course also covers wall thickness calculations for cone-to-cylinder junctions. Through video lectures and interactive quizzes, learners gain essential skills for real-world applications. A certificate with PDH credits is awarded upon completion.
About the course
Learn how to calculate the wall thickness of a pressure vessel according to the EN 13445 design code. In this Self-Paced course, participants will be taken through: the EN 13445-3 design rules for determining the design wall thickness of a pressure vessel, its application for cylinders and cones, its application for formed torispherical ends, thin-walled cylinders versus thick-walls and Lame's formula, how to calculated the MAWP (Maximum Allowable Working Pressure), the wall thickness calculation for a cone-to-cylinder junction.
