EN 13445-3, Annex T - Required burst pressure calculation

[MartinD]

Hello dear colleagues.

I am designing a pressure vessel according to EN 13445-3 pressure vessel code. As I have specified in the thread name I am interested in the required burst pressure calculation.

Before I start explaining my situation I would like to know if anybody has got any experience with this code and has already done these calculations. It would also help to know if your calculations were then audited and approved by an outside body.

To anyone sharing their experience I thank you in advance.

M.

Dear M,

As a fellow scientist and engineer, I have experience with EN 13445-3 pressure vessel code and have performed required burst pressure calculations in the past. These calculations are crucial in ensuring the safety and integrity of pressure vessels, and it is important to follow the code's guidelines carefully.

In my experience, these calculations have been audited and approved by an outside body, such as a regulatory agency or a third-party inspection company. This is a necessary step to ensure that the pressure vessel meets all safety standards and regulations.

I would recommend thoroughly reviewing the code and its requirements, as well as consulting with experts in the field, to ensure accurate and compliant calculations. Additionally, keeping detailed records of the calculations and any testing or verification methods used can be helpful in the auditing process.

I hope this helps and wish you success in your pressure vessel design.
