MP Condensate Flash Vessel Design

This document provides calculations for the mechanical strength of a condensate flash vessel. It includes design data such as operating pressure, temperature, material properties, and dimensions. Calculations are shown for determining the minimum required shell and head thicknesses to withstand the design pressure. The shell thickness calculation determines a minimum of 5.98mm and an adopted thickness of 8mm. The head thickness calculation determines a minimum of 2.94mm and an adopted thickness of 10mm. Safety factors and corrosion allowances are included in the calculations according to regulatory standards.
