Internal Pressure: The internal design pressure (pressure on the concave side). This value is gauge pressure. When “Solve for Thickness” is selected, this value is an input and should not include static head. When “Solve for Pressure” is selected, this value is a result. In the latter case, it represents the total internal pressure (design pressure plus head) that the component can handle and meet code in the absence of any other loadings. This defaults to the lesser greater of the cone or cylinder internal pressure. It can be changed.
Static Head: The internal pressure (pressure on the concave side) resulting from the static head of the fluid. The user must determine this value and input it accordingly. It will be added to the Pressure input and the sum will be used in the internal pressure calculations for the component. This field will not be present when “Solve for Pressure” is selected. This defaults to the lesser greater of the cone or cylinder static head. It can be changed.
