Variables Used

Mean Diameter of Skirt - (Measured in Meter) - Mean Diameter of Skirt in a vessel will depend on the size and design of the vessel.
Maximum Wind Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Maximum Wind Moment is calculated based on a number of factors, including the wind speed and direction, the size and shape of the building or structure, the materials used in construction.
Axial Bending Stress at Base of Vessel - (Measured in Pascal) - Axial Bending Stress at Base of Vessel refers to the stress that occurs when wind exerts a force on the vessel, causing it to bend or deform.
Thickness of Skirt - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Skirt is typically determined by calculating the maximum stress that the skirt is likely to experience and their must be sufficient to resist the weight of the vessel.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Wind Moment: 370440000 Newton Millimeter --> 370440 Newton Meter (Check conversion here)
Axial Bending Stress at Base of Vessel: 1.01 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 1010000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Thickness of Skirt: 1.18 Millimeter --> 0.00118 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_sk = ((4*M_w)/((pi*(f_wb)*t_sk)))^(0.5) --> ((4*370440)/((pi*(1010000)*0.00118)))^(0.5)

Evaluating ... ...

D_sk = 19.8935507665365

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

19.8935507665365 Meter -->19893.5507665365 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

19893.5507665365 ≈ 19893.55 Millimeter <-- Mean Diameter of Skirt

What is Vessel Support in Process Equipment Design?

In equipment design, vessel support refers to the structural support provided to vessels or tanks used in various industrial processes. Vessels or tanks are used to store or transport various types of materials such as liquids, gases, and solids in industries such as chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing.The design of vessel support in equipment design must comply with various standards and codes, such as the American Petroleum Institute (API) standards, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) codes, and other international standards. The vessel support design must also be approved by regulatory bodies, such as local or national authorities, before construction or installation can begin.Overall, vessel support in equipment design is a critical aspect of industrial processes involving the use of vessels or tanks.

What is Design Thickness?

Design thickness refers to the calculated minimum thickness required for a component, such as a pipe, vessel, or plate, to safely withstand its operating conditions and loads. The design thickness is based on various factors, including the material properties, operating temperature and pressure, corrosion allowances, and safety factors. It is an essential consideration in engineering design to ensure the structural integrity and safety of a component under all expected conditions of use.
