Main objective of this research was to develop a
Finite Element Model (FEM) of thin walled flat metal ribbon
wound pressure vessel (FMRWPV) using ANSYS software.
In this research work, analytical formulae for hoop and axial
stress in thin walled FMRWPV under the effect of changing
helical winding angle have been developed. Finite Element
Analysis (FEA) has been carried out using ANSYS software.
The design consists of an inner shell with thickness 40% of the
total design thickness and six layers of flat metal ribbons
(FMRs) each with 2mm thickness. Ribbons have been wound
on the inner shell with same pre-tension by pulling them
during winding. The results from analytical and FEA methods
in terms of hoop and axial stress have been compared.
Suggestions have been made to compensate for variations
between analytical and FEA results.
