Course details

This course will cover basic and advanced topics of Pressure Vessel Engineering Design and Manufacturing requirement to provide a robust understanding of the background theory behind technical requirements of Pressure Vessel codes and standards. This will serve as a refresher course on core and advanced topics of Pressure Vessel Engineering to understand technical background of design and analysis as per codes & standards.
This course covers all important aspects of Pressure Vessel Design, Fabrication and testing, which comprises of
• Design, Analysis and Engineering requirement for Pressure Vessel
• Metallurgy and Material Selection while designing Pressure vessel
• Fabrication prerequisite while Pressure Vessel engineering
• Heat Treatment requirement for Pressure Vessel
• Testing & Inspection essentials for Pressure Vessel Design
All of above topics are covered in different modules of this course hence we encourage you to enroll all modules to learn all major and critical areas of Pressure vessel engineering.
Classifications of Static Equipment Engineering is a specialized discipline of Mechanical Engineering which covers the design of static equipments like Pressure vessels (Process Columns, Drums, Reactors, Separators, Drain vessel), Heat exchangers (Shell and Tube, Plate and Frame, Plate and Shell, Air Coolers), Atmospheric Tanks (Low pressure and LPG Tanks), Flare Stack in chemical, petrochemical, or hydrocarbon facilities. We have different courses to cover above listed equipment & do participate in all courses.

 

Course suitable for

Key topics covered

This module talks about ASME Code. ASME Section II Part A, B & D standards & also various Lattice structures will be discussed so that the actual usage in industry can be understood. Chemical & mechanical properties of various types of steels will be covered at length. Anyone who goes through these details will be able to understand and implements the facts in live projects. Following topics are covered in this module
1. Basics of Metallurgy
a. Understanding FCC & BCC structures-
b. Behavior of Carbon
c. Alloying Elements
Do enroll other module to learn more on fundamentals of material requirement while designing pressure vessel and understand ASME Code that are critical for a static equipment engineer.

Questions and Answers

A: Governing principle: Design inputs come from contract hierarchy, not engineering convenience. Here, GA and datasheet disagreement changes nozzle MAWP and reinforcement area; COMPRESS just executes inputs. If the contract specifies document precedence, that decides which value is binding. Option B traps engineers who equate conservatism with compliance, ignoring that unapproved upgrades can breach contract and code traceability.

A: Governing principle: Allowable stress in ASME VIII is temperature-dependent, but not driven by MDMT unless below tabulated limits. Reducing MDMT can move the design onto a more permissive UCS exemption curve, yet allowable stress at design temperature stays the same. Option A catches engineers who conflate toughness rules with strength allowables.

A: Governing principle: Code edition is a contractual requirement, not a software default. Even if charts or rules improved later, fabrication and verification must align with the specified edition unless contractually changed. Option D traps engineers who overestimate AI discretion; inspectors verify compliance, they don’t redefine the governing code.

A: Governing principle: ASME VIII Div 1 internal pressure thickness uses inside radius and deducts corrosion allowance after calculation. Applying t = PR/(SE−0.6P) gives about 20.9 mm, then adding 3 mm CA yields roughly 24 mm nominal. Option B catches engineers who forget corrosion allowance sits outside the pressure equation.
