The combination of cyclic thermal stresses and sustained internal pressure in a vessel is shown to be a source of progressive expansion of the vessel if the stresses are sufficiently high. Criteria presented allow determination of limits to be imposed on stresses in order to prevent progressive expansion or to allow estimation of the expansion per cycle where stresses are sufficient to produce growth. The effect of strain-hardening of the metal on progressive reduction of the growth rate is discussed.

Thermal membrane and bending stress fields exist where the thermal expansion of pressure vessel components is constrained. When such stress fields interact with pressure stresses in a shell, ratcheting can occur below the ratchet boundary indicated by the Bree diagram that is implemented in the design Codes. The interaction of primary and thermal membrane stress fields with arbitrary biaxiality is not implemented presently in the thermal stress ratchet rules of the ASME Code, and is examined in this paper. An analytical solution for the ratchet boundary is derived based on a non-cyclic method that uses a generalized static shakedown theorem. The solutions for specific applications in pressure vessels are discussed, and a comparison with the interaction diagrams for specific cases that can be found in the literature is performed.

Large LNG storage tanks as liquid natural gas cryogenic pressure vessels, the cold between the tanks and concrete wall is very important. In some special cases, ultra-low temperature liquefied natural gas will enter the second vessel, then the wall will produce thermal stress, at this time the main factor to control the temperature difference between inside and outside the wall is the hot corner protection. This paper introduces the general international structure of tank insulation, and then through the theoretical derivation, gives the insulating layer, hot corner protection and formula for calculating temperature distribution of exterior wall. On this basis, gives the formula for calculating the external thermal stress and thermal protection angle is given control of the thickness of the design equation. Finally, using ADINA finite element software to establish insulation and the wall temperature field model and calculate the heat - wall structure coupled thermal stress, and through the analysis of a project example to verify the correctness of the formula. The results show that in the leakage state, temperature stress of external wall is large, indicating that it is significant to design the thickness of hot corner protection.
