    2:1 Eliptical Head and F&D Heads- Size Standard?

    Hi, I'm EU based engineer and I am preparing some kind of algorithm to specify tank size based on EN and ASME standards. For torispherical heads most of manufacturers in Europe follow DIN28011 and DIN28013 standards to select proper dished heads to their calculations basing on EN13445-3. I was...

    Wetted Surface Area of 2:1 SE Vertical Tanks

    Hi, What I was looking for is a wetted area of partially filled tank head 2:1 elipsoidal, which in case of horizontal tanks is differerent than in case of vertical by obvious reasons. I've found the articles from Kolev on horizontal ones, but couldnt find any on vertical. Eventually I've...

    Wetted Surface Area of 2:1 SE Vertical Tanks

    Hi, I've seen some previous threads on this topic, but I took D. Moss book and implemented equations for surface area 2:1 SE (Appendix E, Table E-1). It appears that the surface area of the head in h=0 reduces to D^2*pi()/4, which is the cross section of the cylidnical part. At h=0 the surface...
