Unfired pressure vessels - Part 6: Requirements for the design and fabrication of pressure vessels and pressure parts constructed from spheroidal graphite cast iron

This European Standard specifies requirements for the design, materials, manufacturing and testing of pressure vessels and pressure vessel parts intended for use with a maximum allowable pressure, PS, equal or less than 100 bar and shell wall thicknesses not exceeding 60 mm, which are constructed of ferritic or austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron. The thickness limitation of the shell does not apply to thickness of flanges, reinforcements, bosses etc.
The allowable grades do not include lamellar graphite cast iron grades for ferritic and austenitic grades, which are explicitly excluded from this European Standard because of low elongation and brittle material behaviour, which requires the use of different safety factors and a different approach.
NOTE 1   Austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron grades are principally used for high and low temperature applications and for their corrosion resistance properties.
NOTE 2   The allowable grades of spheroidal graphite cast iron are listed in Tables 3 and 4. Service conditions are given in Clause 4.

pressure vessels and pressure vessel parts intended for use with a maximum allowable pressure, PS, equal
or less than 100 bar and shell wall thicknesses not exceeding 60 mm, which are constructed of ferritic or
austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron. The thickness limitation of the shell does not apply to the thickness of
flanges, reinforcements, bosses, etc.
NOTE1 Austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron grades are principally used for high and low temperature applications
and their corrosion resistance properties.
NOTE2 The allowable grades of spheroidal graphite cast iron are listed in Tables 3 and 4Service conditions are given
in clause 4.
NOTE3 The allowable grades do not include lamellar graphite cast iron grades, which are explicitly excluded from this
standard because of low elongation and brittle material behaviour, which requires the use of different safety factors and a

3 Terms, definitions, unit and symbols
3.1 Terms and definitions
Replace clause 3.1.1 with the following text:
3.1.1
critical zone
highly stressed area where a fracture is expected to occur in a burst test or where surface fatigue cracks are
expected to initiate due to fluctuating pressure loads.
NOTE 1 Critical zones may occur, for example, by any of the following:
— sudden change in cross section;
— sharp edges;
— sharp radii;
— peak stresses;
— bending stresses;
— stresses due to other than membrane stress;
— changes in curvature.
EN 13445-6:2002/prA2:2005 (E)
NOTE 2 A critical zone is analysed by any appropriate method, e.g. holographic, interferometric, strain gauge methods,
burst test, fatigue testing, FEM analysis, etc.
NOTE 3 Additionally, thermal gradients and thermal stresses due to different operating wall temperatures are to be
considered in defining critical zones.

Add new clauses 3.1.8 and 3.1.9:
3.1.8
ferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron
cast material, iron and carbon based (carbon being present mainly in the form of spheroidal graphite
particles ) with a predominantly ferritic matrix.

3.1.9
austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron
cast material, iron and carbon based (carbon being present mainly in the form of spheroidal graphite
particles ) with an austenitic matrix and alloyed with nickel and where appropriate, manganese, copper and/or
chromium.

4 Service conditions
Replace the whole of clause 4 with the following text:
4.1 Cyclic loading
Spheroidal graphite cast iron pressure vessels and vessel parts can be used for non-cyclic or cyclic operation
if the stress concentration factor is limited to 3.
NOTE: A stress concentration factor (ratio of peak stress to fatigue stress) greater than 3, determined by any of the design
methods given in clause 5.2 can be the result of inappropriate design. By enlarging radii or other small changes, an
acceptable design may be generated.
If the service conditions require more than the maximum number of full pressure cycles according to Table
4.1-1, or more than an equivalent number of cycles with smaller amplitude, then a fatigue analysis shall be
performed according to Annex D.
Table 4.1-1 — Number of full pressure cycles for cyclic loading consideration

C =0,8

NOTE 1: A testing factor of 0,9 implies the application of higher nominal design stresses and consequently results in a
lower maximum number of full pressure cycles without mandatory fatigue analysis.
NOTE 2: If the calculated number of cycles is close to an above limit to determine the need for fatigue analysis, a worst-
case model shall be implemented for this determination.
For pressure cycles at a pressure difference ∆P less than the full pressure, the number of equivalent full
i
cycles is given by equation (4.1-1):

EN 13445-6:2002/prA2:2005 (E)
4.2 Limitations on temperature and energy content
The minimum and maximum allowable temperature TS shall be in accordance with the limits given in Tables
5.1-1 and 5.1-2.
The product PSxV for a single casting shall not exceed 10. 000 MPa·l (100 000 bar·l).
5 Requirements
5.1 Materials
Replace clause 5.1 with the following text:
All spheroidal graphite cast iron grades subject to internal or external pressure shall comply with EN 1563 for
ferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron and EN 13835 for austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron.
For all material grades, mechanical properties shall be guaranteed by the foundry at specified locations on the
castings.
The ferritic material grades are given in Table 5.1-1 and shall be used for applications where the minimum
°
allowable temperature is higher or equal to – 10 C.
The material grades listed in Table 5.1-2 are intended for low temperature or high temperature design
conditions.
