In this study, we evaluated the structural integrity and weight of a rocket motor with a torispherical dome by size optimal design. Size optimal design was achieved by first-order and sub-problem methods, using the Ansys Parametric Design Language (APDL). For rapid design verification, a modified 2D axisymmetric finite-element model was used, and the bolt pre-tension load was expressed as function of the ratio of the cross-sectional area. The thickness of the dome and the cylindrical part of the rocket motor were selected as the design parameters. Our results showed that the weight and structural integrity of the rocket motor at the initial design stage could be determined more rapidly and accurately with the modified 2D axisymmetric finite-element model than with the 3D finite-element model. Further, the weight of the rocket motor could be saved to maximum of 17.6% within safety limit.

“…The materials except alloy steel materials can be excluded first for preliminary consideration on the cost. According to the pressure vessel standard [2], in this design temperature, there are only five optional alloy steel materials: SA-387Gr91, 15CrMo, 12Cr1MoV, 12Cr2Mo1 and 12Cr2Mo1V, which can be determined as the alternatives. Before carrying out the technical analysis and comparison for the alternatives, technical index evaluation system should be established first.…”

Abstract. In view of the problem happened nowadays that the deviation found in the selection of technical solution in the enterprise, on the basis of analyzing the characteristic, this article proposed the solution by technical and economic analysis method, introduced the procedure how to use this method in detail and verified by a case study of a manufacturing company for example. The results show that the application of technical and economic analysis method can provide a scientific basis for the enterprise to formulate and choose technology solutions, which means great significance for the enterprise to invest and make strategic decision.

“…In each case pressure vessels must be carefully designed to cope with the operating temperatures and pressures [1][2]. The size and geometric form of pressure vessels vary greatly from the large cylindrical vessels used for high-pressure gas storage to the small size used as hydraulic units for aircraft [3].…”

Abstract-The design of pressure vessel is an extremely professional job which has heavy workload, repeated work, and rich accumulated knowledge, and it has good characteristics of serialization, generalization, standardization. Generic 3D CAD systems are not suitable for pressure vessel design. On the contrary, customized development based on 3D CAD system is needed. In this paper, a new pressure vessel design system based on Chinese 3D CAD system named SINOVATION was developed to improve design efficiency and accuracy. First, the functions and construction of pressure vessel design system were presented with the analysis of the traditional design process of pressure vessels. Second, related design specifications were managed and used flexibly in pressure vessel design system, and general parts library and standard parts library were established to improve parts reuse and accumulation. Finally, a guiding design mode was accepted for typical vessels and components to design same product series while direct modeling function was used for atypical pressure vessels. The results show that this method is helpful for embedded use of design specifications, standards and knowledge, and also provides an extensive interface for product updates and diversification. Statistical data reports and accurate engineering drawings are generated automatically based on 3D models. The quality, efficiency, and consistence are greatly improved. With the implementation and application, the system has been highly commended by customers in Chinese pressure vessel industry, especially in petrochemical industry.
