Objective
Current industrial pressure vessel manufacturing technology uses large quantities of steel involves an extra internal heating/cooling structure and results in a very heavy final product. The study will aim to increase process safety: reduce process material costs by up to 50 %: reduce energy consumed by up to 50 %: indirectly reduce the pollution and waste by up to 50 %: and reduce the cost of industrial pressure vessels by up to 30 %. The RTD goals to meet these aims are: reduce the thickness of steel used in the outer skin: Strengthen the outer skin by using an embossed structure: eliminate the use of an extra internal heating/cooling structure; utilise the new outer skin structure to enable healing or cooling in the vessel; generate a computer programme that predicts the pressure characteristics of industrial pressure vessels manufactured in this novel way. It is intended to do this by the study of a novel process for the manufacture of industrial pressure vessels, in an energy saving way.
