A firetube boiler explosion on the Mississippi River steamboat Sultana on April

2、 27, 1865, resulted in the boats sinking within 20 minutes and the death of 1500 soldiers going home after the Civil War. This type of catastrophe continued unabated into the early 1900s. In 1905, a destructive explosion of a firetube boiler in a shoe factory in Brockton, Massachusetts, killed 58 pe

3、ople, injured 117 others, and did $ 400000 in property damage. In 1906, another explosion in a shoe factory in Lynn, Massachusetts, resulted in death, injury, and extensive property damage. After this accident, the Massachusetts governor directed the formation of a Board of Boiler Rules. The first s

4、et of rules for the design and construction of boilers was approved in Massachusetts on August 30, 1907. This code was three pages long.In 1911, Colonel E. D. Meier, the president of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, established a committee to write a set of rules for the design and cons

5、truction of boilers and pressure vessels. On February 13, 1915, the first ASME Boiler Code was issued. It was entitled “Boiler Construction Code, 1914 Edition.” This was the beginning of the various sections of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, which ultimately became Section 1, Power Boiler

6、.The first ASME Code for pressure vessels was issued as “Rules for the Construction of Unfired Pressure Vessels, ” Section , 1925 edition. The rules applied to vessels over 6 in. in diameter, volume over 1.5 ft3, and pressure over 30 psi. In December 1931, a Joint API-ASME Committee was formed to de

7、velop an unfired pressure vessel code for the petroleum industry. The first edition was issued in 1934. For the next 17 years, two separated unfired pressure vessel codes existed. In 1951, the last API-ASME Code was issued as a separated document. In 1952, the two codes were consolidated into one co

8、de-the ASME Unfired Pressure Vessel Code,Section . This continued until the 1968 edition. At that time, the original code became Section , Division 1, Pressure Vessels, and another new part was issued, which was Section , Division 2, Alternative Rules for Pressure Vessels.The ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pr

9、essure Vessel Code is issued by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers with approval by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an ANSI/ASME document. One or more sections of the ANSI/ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code have been established as the legal requirements in 47 states

10、in the United States and in all provinces of Canada. Also, in many other countries of the world, the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code is used to construct boilers and pressure vessels.Organization of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code is divided int

11、o many sections, divisions, parts, and subparts. Some of these sections relate to a specific kind of equipment and application; others relate to specific materials and methods for application and control of equipment; and others relate to care and inspection of installed equipment. The following Sec

The addenda are permissive at the date of issuance and become mandatory six months after that date.Worldwide Pressure Vessel Codes In addit

15、ion to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, which is used worldwide, many other pressure vessel codes have been legally adopted in various countries. Difficulty often occurs when vessels are designed in one country, built in another country, and installed in still a different country. With this

21、制鞋厂里的另一次爆炸，造成死亡，受伤和大量财产损失。在这次事故之后，马塞诸塞州州长指挥成立了锅炉规范委员会。1907年8月30日，设计和建造锅炉的第一套规范在马塞诸塞州得到批准。这个规范总共有三页。1911年，美国机械工程师学会主席Colonel E. D. Meier成立了一个委员会，专门起草锅炉和压力容器设计和建造的规范。1915年2月13日，第一部锅炉规范ASME被颁布。它被提名为锅炉建造规范：1914版。这是ASME锅炉和压力容器规范各篇的开始，最后变成了第一篇动力锅炉。第一个压力容器的规范ASME，是以1925版第VIII篇“不用火加热压力容器的建造规则”的名称颁布的。该规则适用于直

22、径大于6英寸，容积大于1.5f和压力高于30Pa的容器。1931年12月，为了发展适合于石油工业不用火加热的容器规范，专门成立了APIASME联合委员会。第一版本在1934年颁布。在随后的17年时间里，存在两个独立的不用火加热容器规范。1951年，最后的APIASME规范以独立的文件颁布。1952年，两个规范合并成一个规范ASME不用火加热压力容器规范（第VIII篇）。这部规范一直延续到1968版。那时，原来的规范变为第一分篇压力容器（第VIII篇），第二分篇压力容器另一规则（第VIII篇）作为另外新的部分被颁布。经美国国家标准局（ANSI）批准，美国机械工程师学会以ASNI/ASME文件的形

23、式，颁布了ASNI/ASME锅炉和压力容器规范。ASNI/ASME锅炉和压力容器规范的一篇或多篇，已经在美国的47个州和加拿大的所有省中，以法律的形式确立。同样，在世界的许多其他国家，ASME锅炉和压力容器规范，也被用来建造锅炉和压力容器。ASME锅炉和压力容器规范的组成 ASME锅炉和压力容器规范分成许多篇，分篇，部分和辅助部分。在这些篇中，一些涉及到特定类型的设备和应用；另外的涉及特定的材料和设备应用与控制的方法；其余的涉及安装的设备的维护和检修。下面各篇特别涉及锅炉和压力容器个设计和建造。第一部分动力锅炉（1卷）第三部分第1节 核电厂部件（7卷）第2节 混凝土反应容器和控制（1卷）标准容

27、deformation.(3) Brittle fracture.(4) Stress rupture/creep deformation (inelastic).(5) Plastic instability-incremental collapse.(6) High strain-low cycle fatigue. (7) Stress corrosion.(8) Corrosion fatigue.In dealing with these various modes of failure, we assume that the designer has at his disposal

28、 a picture of the state of stress within the part in question. This would be obtained either through calculation or measurements of the both mechanical and thermal stresses which could occur throughout the entire vessel during transient and steady state operations. The question one must ask is what

29、do these numbers mean in relation to the adequacy of the design? Will they insure safe and satisfactory performance of a component? It is against these various failure modes that the pressure vessel designer must compare and interpret stress values. For example, elastic deformation and elastic insta

30、bility (buckling) cannot be controlled by imposing upper limits to the calculated stress alone. One must consider, in addition, the geometry and stiffness of a component as well as properties of the material.The plastic deformation mode of failure can, on the other hand, be controlled by imposing li

31、mits on calculated stresses, but unlike the fatigue and stress corrosion modes of failure, peak stress does not tell the whole story. Careful consideration must be given to the consequences of yielding, and therefore the type of loading and the distribution of stress resulting therefrom must be care

32、fully studied. The designer must consider, in addition to setting limits for allowable stress, some adequate and proper failure theory in order to define how the various stresses in a component react and contribute to the strength of that part.As mentioned previously, different types of stress require different limits, and before establishing these limits it was necessary to choose the stress categories to which limits should be applied. The categories and sub-categories
