Non-heat able pressure vessels appear on a large scale in engineering practice. In the field of water supply, i.e. in water treatment plants, this is one of the basic characteristics for a closed filter container. It is therefore obvious that there is a need to devote more attention to this discipline in terms of construction, calculations of individual shapes, attachments, penetrations and the establishment of these structural devices. The company Envites (www.envites.cz) is engaged in the market from designing, calculating up to the in-house production of individual products that serve as technologies for water and sludge treatment. One of the main aspects is the separate calculation of the pressure part of the vessel. In many cases, it is a pressurized, insoluble container of larger volumes and weights. In this post, we will deal with the calculation for three pressure vessels and show the calculation procedure on one of these vessels. These two containers are designed as sand filters for industrial water filtration, which is used in industrial facilities.
