Before
building a pressure tank, verify which the dimensions that minimize
the cost in material are.
With
this method you may find :
·
The approximate diameter (3% of difference with the exact diameter)
and the exact diameter, that minimizes the
cost to build a pressure tank ; units : in, m.
·
The diameter-length ratio.
·
The optimum length; units : in,m.
Furthermore
you will be able to:
·
Check your economic design of the pressure tank, upon changing some
one of the following parameters :
·
Design pressure.
·
Volume.
·
Material (Resistance).
·
Welding efficiency.
·
Corrosion allowance.
