| The end caps on a cylindrically shaped [[pressure vessel]] are commonly known as '''heads'''.
| |
| | |
| ==Shapes==
| |
| The shape of the heads used can vary. The most common<ref>[http://www.juenger.com/english/index1.htm Juenger.com]</ref><ref>[http://steelmillsoftheworld.com/products/cs/dishedheads/index.htm Dished heads]</ref> head shapes are:
| |
| | |
| ===[[Sphere|Hemispherical]] head===
| |
| A sphere is the ideal shape for a head, because the pressure in the vessel is divided equally across the surface of the head. The radius (r) of the head equals the radius of the cylindrical part of the vessel.
| |
| | |
| ===Ellipsoidal head===
| |
| This is also called a 2:1 elliptical head. The shape of this head is more economical, because the height of the head is just a quarter of the diameter. Its radius varies between the major and minor axis.
| |
| | |
| ===Torispherical head===
| |
| These heads have a dish with a fixed radius (r1), the size of which depends on the type of torispherical head.<ref>[[:de:Gewölbter Boden|Torispherical head]]</ref> The transition between the cylinder and the dish is called the knuckle. The knuckle has a toroidal shape. The most common types of torispherical heads are:

| [[Image:Gewoeblter boden (0.2).png|300px|thumb|Schematic of a torispherical head]]
| |
| | |
| ====Klöpper head====
| |
| This is a torispherical head. The dish has a radius that equals the diameter of the cylinder it is attached to (<math>r_1=Do</math>). The knuckle has a radius that equals a tenth of the diameter of the cylinder (<math>r_2=0.1\times Do</math>), hence its alternative designation "Decimal head".
| |
| :Also other sizes are: <math>h \ge3.5\times t</math> ,<ref>http://teledu.mech.teilar.gr/mod/resource/view.php?id=101</ref><small>(page13)</small> rest of height (lets say <math>h_2</math>) <math>h_2=0.1935\times Do-0.455\times t</math> .
| |
| | |
| ====Korbbogen head====
| |
| This is a torispherical head also named Semi ellipsoidal head (According to DIN 28013). The radius of the dish is 80% of the diameter of the cylinder (<math>r_1=0.8\times Do</math>). The radius of the knuckle is (<math>r_2=0.154\times Do</math>).
| |
| :Also other sizes are: <math>h \ge3\times t</math> , rest of height (lets say <math>h_2</math>) <math>h_2=0.255\times Do-0.635\times t</math> . This shape<ref>[http://www.plaatijzerindustrie.com/heads/headskorb.htm Korbogen design standard]</ref> finds its origin in architecture.<ref>[http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogen_(Architektur)#Korbbogen|Korbbogen, architectural information]</ref>
| |
| | |
| ===Flat head===
| |
| This is a head consisting of a toroidal knuckle connecting to a flat plate. This type of head is typically used for the bottom of [[cookware]]. [[Image:copper-saucepot.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Pans typically have a bottom in the shape of a flat head]]
| |
| | |
| ===Diffuser head===
| |
| This type of head is often found on the bottom of aerosol spray cans. It is an inverted torispherical head. [[Image:Diffuser Head.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Typical application of a diffuser head: the bottom of an aerosol spray can]]
| |
| | |
| ===Conical head===
| |
| This is a [[cone (geometry)|cone]]-shaped head.
| |
| <!-- [[Image:Image:Kieswerk_II.JPG|thumb|300px|right|These silos are fitted with a conical bottom head]] -->
| |
| | |
| ==Heat treatment==
| |
| [[Heat treatment]] is usually required after cold forming, but not for heads formed by hot forming.Ref. ASME Section VIII Div.1 for further detail.
