whichever is the case. NOTE A stress factor – defined in 3.1.11 (ratio of peak stress to total stress-defined in 3.1.12) − greater than 3, determined by any of the design methods given in 5.8, can be the result of inappropriate design. By enlarging radii or other small changes, an acceptable design may be generated. It is recommended to carry out a finite element analysis to determine areas with possible excessive stress concentrations. 5 Design requirements 5.1 Design principle The loadings to be accounted for shall be in accordance with EN 13445-3:2009, Clause 5. The materials, limitations and service conditions of Clause 4 of this standard shall be considered. Design methods shall be in accordance with this European Standard and, when indicated in a clause of this standard, with the relevant clauses of EN 13445-6:2009. If the geometry of the component or the loading case does not allow calculation by the formulas given in EN 13445-3:2009, design by analysis (DBA) or design by experiment (DBE) shall be applied. Depending on the complexity of the component, the loading conditions and the level of NDT, the designer may choose one of the following available design methods mentioned below. Correlation between safety factor, testing factor and the method to assess dynamic loading is given in Table 5. 5.2 Conceptual design and construction drawings The manufacturer analysis of hazards identifying those which apply to the pressure vessel on account of pressure shall be documented and be of sufficient detail. Details of the conceptual design including the design methods adopted, performance criteria and construction drawings shall be provided. Guidance about the detailed dimensional information that shall be provided is given in Annex B of EN 13445-5:2009. Process diagrams, sub-assemblies or other data relevant to conceptual design shall also be maintained. SIST EN 15776:2011



EN 15776:2011 (E) 14 5.3 Static loading 5.3.1 General In order to design the part for static loading, the following shall be considered by the designer. 5.3.2 Design by formula (DBF) Equations for the calculation of the various components of the pressure part are given in EN 13445-3:2009 and EN 13445-6:2009, Annex G. This Annex G gives additional equations for non-standard shaped parts often used in casting design. Nominal design stress for component forms other than bolts shall be calculated in accordance with Table 5. If design by experimental method is used, it shall be in conformity with 5.3.4 of this standard. In general, the manufacturer shall specify to the casting manufacturer which zones are critical related to the design and design loads. Other critical zones may be indicated by the casting manufacturer related to the casting process and shall be taken into account by the manufacturer. Table 5 — Safety factor and nominal design stress

5.3.3 Design by analysis (DBA) a) Decide whether the direct route (limit load, EN 13445-3:2009, Annex B) or the stress categorization method (EN 13445-3:2009, Annex C) will be followed. Decide whether linear or non-linear approach will be used; b) base modelling and interpretation of calculation results shall be based on analysis thickness (ea) and material characteristics at operation temperature; SIST EN 15776:2011



EN 15776:2011 (E) 15 c) for interpretation of calculation results, follow the evaluation procedures and assessment criteria in order to evaluate the fitness for purpose of the real structure. These design checks and related procedures are typical for the failure mode to be dealt with. For the different failure modes, see EN 13445-3:2009. 5.3.4 Design by experiment (DBE) Where design by equations (DBF) according to EN 13445-3:2009 is not considered appropriate due to the complex shape of the component, then a hydraulic burst test to determine the analysis thickness ea and the minimum thickness emin shall be performed according to the procedure in 5.8.2.4. This test is also a part of the technical documentation. NOTE 1 For vessels for which PS × V < 6 000 bar × L (600 MPa × L) an experimental method may be applied as an alternative to the design by formulae (DBF) or design by analysis (DBA) methods. NOTE 2 For vessels for which PS × V ≥ 6 000 bar × L (600 MPa × L) the experimental method may be used in addition to detailed design. 5.4 Temperature reduction factor
