Baffle Design - by Moss

1) The document provides calculations for the design of unstiffened and stiffened baffle plates for a hydro carbon/waste water drain drum. 2) For an unstiffened baffle plate with a provided thickness of 12mm, the actual deflection was calculated to be 52.93mm which exceeds the allowable deflection of 5mm. 3) For a stiffened baffle plate with a maximum panel size of 785mm x 670mm, the actual deflection was calculated to be 0.94mm which is less than the allowable deflection of 1.86mm.

BAFFLE PLATE DESIGN CALCULATION:-

UNSTIFFENED BAFFLE CHECK


Design Pressure P 4.2 MPa
Design Temperature T 150 °C
Fluid Density ρ 1000 kg/m^3
Specific Gravity Sg 1
Corrosion Allowance CA 2 mm
Material of Construction SA 516 Gr.70
Yield Stress σy 230 MPa
Allowable Bending Stress σb = 0.6 x σy 151.8 MPa
Modulus of Elastisity E 195074 MPa
Vessel Inner diameter 2300 mm
Baffle Plate Height 1630 mm
Liquid Height 1480 mm
Design Height of Baffle a 1630 mm
Chord Length of Baffle b 2090 mm
Ratio a/b 0.78
Case - I (Table 5-24_Flate Plate β1 0.1648
Coefficient) ϒ1 0.0338
Max. Uniform Pressure p=ρxgxa 0.0160 MPa
Thickness of Baffle without CA tb = (β1x p x b^2 / σb)^0.5 8.71 mm
Thickness of Baffle with CA 10.71 mm
Baffle Thickness Provided t 12 mm
Corroded Baffle Thickness tco 10 mm
Actual Deflection δ = (p x ϒ1 x b^4)/E x tco^3 52.93 mm
Allowable Deflection Min (b/360, tco/2) 5.00 mm

Conclusion:
Baffle plate thickness provided is more than the required design thickness. But actual deflection is
more than allowable deflection. Hence stiffners are required.
STIFFENED BAFFLE CHECK

Maximum Panel Size a' x b' 785 x 670 mm


Design Height of Panel a' 785 mm
Design Length of Panel b' 670 mm
Max. Uniform Pressure p=ρxgxa 0.0160 MPa
Ratio a'/b' 1.17
Case - III (Table 5-24_Flate Plate β3 0.3517
Coefficient) ϒ3 0.0567
Actual Bending Stress in Panel σb = β3 x p x (b')^2 / tco^2 25.26 MPa
Actual Deflection in Panel δ = ϒ3 x (p/E) x [(b')^4)/tco^3] 0.94 mm
Allowable Deflection Min (b'/360, tco/2) 1.86 mm

Conclusion:
Allowable deflection is also more than
actual deflection with proposed panel size.
