Abstract
The focus of the presented work is on the design and analysis of prismatic pressure vessels. Engineering calculations, design parameters and performance criteria of pressure vessels are available in the literature in detail, but there are deficiencies in the evaluation of the manufacturing processes of prismatic pressure vessels and the mathematical formulae required by these processes in the light of standards. In this context, it was investigated how a special prismatic pressure vessel, a square profile hyperbaric oxygen chamber, could be optimised in terms of structural strength, stress distribution and safety requirements. The material selection and design of such a chamber has been evaluated using DBA and DBF methods. The performance of the prismatic hyperbaric oxygen chamber in current applications is explained, supported by various engineering analyses and simulations. It was observed that the cabin designed in accordance with TS 13445-3 standards is 2 times safe under operating conditions and the amount of displacement is commercially acceptable. It is shown with SolidWorks analysis.
