Hello again, I'm still working on this issue. I can estimate the impact of the projectiles hitting the container walls via calculating the stored energy in the vessel. Converting this directly to kinetic energy to different elements of the vessel, ductile and brittle failure modes. This is a...

Thank you vey much for your reply. You are correct for pointing out the projectile damage that would occur. I have analysed this via stored energy withing the the vessel, blast, gas expansion, strain etc... The likelyhood of the vessel failing is very minimal, and the possible projectile caps...

I am currently investigating pressure test safety with my current employer. Currently we test pressure vessels inside steel test containers, see attached pdf. At the moment Boyles law is used to calculate the resultant pressure increase inside the steel container if the pressure vessel was to...
