When designing equipment for high-temperature and high-pressure service, the maximum allowable stress as a function of temperature of the material of construction is of great importance. Consider a cylindrical vessel shell that is to be designed for pressure of 150 bar (design pressure). The diameter of the vessel is 3.2 m, it is 15 m long, and a corrosion allowance of 6.35 mm (1/4??) is to be used. Construct a table that shows the thickness of the vessel walls in the temperature range of 300 to 500°C (in 20°C increments) if the material of construction is ASME SA-240-grade 316 stainless steel.

Expert Answer
We use ASME B&PV Code Section VIII Div 1 for calculations. Allowable stresses are available in Section
