Fatt, Chairman PURC Design Dosis FOREWORD Several yours ago, the Pressure Vessel Research ‘Committee sponsored an analytical and experi ‘mental reseateh progesm aimed at providing meth- fode of determining the streses in pressure vessel hozsle connections subjected to various forms of xtestal loading. "The analytical portion of tia ‘work ws accomplished by Prof. P. P. Bijlaard of Commell University, and was reported in Hefer- fences 1 ta’ 8 inchisve, Development of the ‘thooretial solutions invalved « numberof simplify: ing. assumptions, including the use of shallow shell theory for spherical vests and extble Toad ing srfaces for eylindvical vessels. ‘These cir- ‘cumstances limited the potential usefulnes of the ‘ells to d,/D, ratio of perhaps 0.83 jn the ease ‘of spherical shells and 0.25 the eas0 of cylindrical Shela, Since no data were available for the lrgor lametor ratios, Prof. ijlanrd later eupplid data, fa the urging of the design engineers, fr he values of 8 ~ OAS and 0.50 (2,/D, ratios approaching 0.60) for eylindvical shells, as listed on page 12 of Reference 10. In so doing, Prof. Bijlaned in- cluded a specie warming concerning the possible Timitaione of thone datay ar follow! "The vel {ov thege lange londing surfaces were computed on reauest of several companize. Tt should be re- ‘membered, however, that they actually apply to ‘exible loading surfaces and, for radial oad, to the canter of the loading surface. It should be under- ‘ood thet sing these values for the edge of the Sttachment, aa was commended for small load fing surfaces, may be unconsorvative,” Following completion of the theoretical work, experimental work was undertaken in an effort to ‘erly the theory, the realta of which were pub- lished in’ References 17 and 18. Whereas this ‘work seemingly provided reasonable verification ofthe theory, i wa limited to relatively small d= 'D, ratioe0.10 in the caso of spherical shells and (0.138 in the case of eylindrical shells. Since vir- iy no data, ether analytical o experimental, ‘were available covering the larger diameter ratios, the Buzeaw of Ships sponsored a limited investigs tion of this problem in sphere, almed et « par- ticular design problem, and the Pressure Vessel Reasearch Committee undertook a somewbst sis ‘lar investigation in eylinders. Results of hi work have recently become svailable empbesizing the Timitstions ia Biflaed’s data_on eylindvicn! shells, particularly sit applies to thin shells over the “txtended range” (page 12 of Reference 10) Tncident to the use of Bijleard’s data for design purposes, it fas become apparent. that design engineers somstines have diffoulty in interpreting for property applying this work. As a result of ‘ch experience, PVI&C has felt it desirable tha all, of Bijlaar's work be simmarized in convenient, “cookbook” Yorm to faciitate its use by design ‘engineers. However, before this document could be issued, the above mentioned limitations became spparent, presenting an unfortunate dlerms, viz. the test data indicate that the calelated date ars pertilly inadequate, but the exact nature and Iognitide of the eror is not known, nor is any better analytical treatment of the peablers eva able (for cylinders) Tinder these circumstance. it wae decided that the best course wat to proceed with ting tb “cookbook, "extending Bijlaard'scurvesasbest we can on the basis of available test data. This tision was based on the premise that all of proposed changes would be toward the conservs Eve (or “anfe") side and. that design engineer ‘would contin to use Bilaard’s extended range ‘data unless some alternative sere offered. The following paper is therefore presented in the ho>s that it will facilitate the use of Bijlards worl: b design engineers. Every effort has heen made to point out any known limitations in the work and to explain the exact nature of the changes which have been made to Bijlaard’s original curves anc data; however, ure sre wamed that the resulting ‘work isnot nceetariy adequate for alleasss. It's the hope of the Subcommitta that additions theo retical work can be undertaken to provi fdequate data on various phases ofthis prot FS. G.

In sotue eases, the discrep lancies involved were quite large and seemingly Indicated « necessity for providing interim modif- cations to a portion of Bijlaard’s data pending d Yyelopment of « more adequate analytical restiment of the problem. The following summary is pre tented to document the nature ofthe discrepancies fand to explain the manner in which the curves based on Bijland's data have been modified herein. AZ Sphorical Shells ‘Bijlaard’s work on spherical shells was based on shallow shell theory, and the limitations which he placed on the theory woro essontially as indicated In Fig. A-, ftom which it wil be observed that the limiting /D, ratio ia about '/, for “thin” shells, and somewhat losin thicker shells (D»/T ratios of 20-85). The experimental work at Cornell Uni- ‘versity which was performed to verify the theory, as reported in Reference 18, was or ad,/D, ratio ot Approximately 0.10 and D,/T ratios of apprexi- mately 37, 80 and 92, which parameters aie all well ‘within Bijlaard’s limits, oss indicated on Pig. A. Subsequently, Westinghouse Heseerch Labora: tories tested” four photoelastic models for the Bureau of Ships, under moment loading only, 28 reported in Heference 24; those models hed & ‘Dq/T sat of 51.0, one with &d,/D, ratio of 0.13, ‘wo with ady/Dgraiio of 0.27, and one with @d,/D, ratio of 0.50. Similarly, IIT Research Institute has tested one steel model for PVIRC, hsvin & Da/T ratio of 286 snd a d,/D, ratio of 0.50, tho prliminary rsults of which are reported in Rafer fence 23. As indicated on Fig. Act, these models provide one point well within Bijlaar’s limit, vo Approaching those limite and two wall tsi *ho2o ii ‘Also recently, the work of Penny-Leckie® be came available) which ie based on “not-shallow sholl” theory and which might offer hope af = maze adequate treatment at the larger diameter sti, ‘A summary of the parameters for the above mentioned models is contained in Table Al, std = Summary of the calculated and measured siremoe In Table A-2, "Reference 20 provides curves only for the maxiinum of the two stresees, ai aes that “for emall values of #/7, the hoo stose fer came e oo eevee ae te oo “Tans Aicuparaon ot Goleaid and Mesrard Svesen Spherical Woda wer Enel Neu atcngs oases ‘a te is ie Zn sri by Westinghouse fo be potenti de (ea) ie higher than the meridional stress (o) With incressing #77, +, Becomes smaller andr, large, until, begine (0 dominate.

On thie basi, the stresses from Penny” Leck are precumably for ¢, for the four photo clstie models (WN series, and e, forthe stel ‘model ("31").
