Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle = ((4*(Total Wind Force acting on Vessel))*(Height of Vessel above Foundation-Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation))/(Number of Brackets*Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket)
D_bc = ((4*(Wind_Force))*(Height-c))/(N*P_Load)
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle refers to the distance between the centers of two bolts that are located on opposite sides of a circular pattern of bolts used to secure a vessel.
Total Wind Force acting on Vessel - (Measured in Newton) - Total Wind Force acting on Vessel refers to the force per unit area exerted by the wind on the surface of the vessel.
Height of Vessel above Foundation - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Vessel above Foundation refers to the vertical distance between the base of the vessel and the topmost point of the vessel's structure.
Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation - (Measured in Meter) - Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation refers to the vertical distance between the lowest point of the vessel's hull and the foundation on which it rests.
Number of Brackets - Number of Brackets required will depend on the weight and size of the equipment or structure that needs to be supported, as well as the load-bearing capacity of the brackets themselves.
Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket - (Measured in Newton) - Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket is the highest amount of compressive force that a material or structure can withstand before it deforms or breaks.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Wind Force acting on Vessel: 3841.6 Newton --> 3841.6 Newton No Conversion Required
Height of Vessel above Foundation: 4000 Millimeter --> 4 Meter (Check conversion here)
Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation: 1250 Millimeter --> 1.25 Meter (Check conversion here)
Number of Brackets: 2 --> No Conversion Required
Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket: 28498.8 Newton --> 28498.8 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_bc = ((4*(Wind_Force))*(Height-c))/(N*P_Load) --> ((4*(3841.6))*(4-1.25))/(2*28498.8)

Evaluating ... ...

D_bc = 0.741392620040142

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.741392620040142 Meter -->741.392620040142 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

741.392620040142 ≈ 741.3926 Millimeter <-- Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle

Maximum Stress in Horizontal Plate fixed at Edges

Go Maximum Stress in Horizontal Plate fixed at Edges = 0.7*Maximum Pressure on Horizontal Plate*((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(2)/(Thickness of Horizontal Plate)^(2))*((Effective Width of Horizontal Plate)^(4)/((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(4)+(Effective Width of Horizontal Plate))^(4))

Wind Pressure acting on Upper Part of Vessel

Go Wind Pressure acting on Upper Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Height of Upper Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel

Go Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Height of Lower Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Height of Lower Part of Vessel

Go Height of Lower Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Height of Upper Part of Vessel

Go Height of Upper Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Wind Pressure acting on Upper Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle

Go Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle = ((4*(Total Wind Force acting on Vessel))*(Height of Vessel above Foundation-Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation))/(Number of Brackets*Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket)

Mean Diameter of Skirt in Vessel

Go Mean Diameter of Skirt = ((4*Maximum Wind Moment)/((pi*(Axial Bending Stress at Base of Vessel)*Thickness of Skirt)))^(0.5)

Maximum Compressive Load

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.
