Docslide. Limpet Coil Calculation

This document contains calculations for determining the minimum thickness of a pipe used to withstand an internal design pressure. It lists the key parameters such as inside pipe radius, shell thickness, design pressure, allowable material stresses, and uses formulas from ASME boiler and pressure vessel codes to calculate the required pipe thickness. The results show that the permissible pipe pressure is greater than the design pressure, indicating the pipe thickness is sufficient.
