Using a lot of algebra. Have you tried assuming the plate thickness is constant and that volume is conserved?

It's not actually all that difficult .

Take a diametral section through the dish and 'unroll' it back to flat .

If dish is made by any normal process which preserves constant and original thickness then diameter of blank as derived above will be on safe side of minimum needed .

In production or for one off's that were critical a manufacturer would either do a test piece or use experience of many previous jobs and trim basic blank diameter to get a little nearer to exact size needed .

Will you shape the flat circle into a torispherical dish by pressing, by metal spinning or by some other process?
 

1. What is the standard blank diameter for a torispherical dish?

The standard blank diameter for a torispherical dish is usually calculated by multiplying the inside diameter of the dish by 1.154.

2. How is the blank diameter for a torispherical dish determined?

The blank diameter for a torispherical dish is typically calculated using mathematical formulas and taking into account factors such as the radius, thickness, and depth of the dish.

3. Can the blank diameter for a torispherical dish vary?

Yes, the blank diameter for a torispherical dish can vary depending on the specific design and application of the dish. Factors such as the material of the dish and the intended use can also affect the blank diameter.

4. What happens if the blank diameter for a torispherical dish is incorrect?

If the blank diameter for a torispherical dish is incorrect, it can result in an improperly formed dish that may not meet the required specifications or may not function effectively in its intended use.

5. Are there any standards or guidelines for determining the blank diameter for a torispherical dish?

Yes, there are various industry standards and guidelines that provide formulas and recommendations for calculating the blank diameter for a torispherical dish. It is important to consult these standards and guidelines to ensure the proper sizing and functioning of the dish.
