Abstract:-
The design and optimization of pressure vessels in boiler applications play a crucial role in the efficient performance of boilers. This paper presents a comprehensive study of the efficient design of pressure vessels for improved boiler performance. The study includes an analysis of the current design trends, materials, and manufacturing techniques used in pressure vessel design for boiler applications. Additionally, the study explores the various optimization techniques and software tools available for improving the design of pressure vessels. The optimization techniques studied include Taguchi method, response surface methodology, and genetic algorithms. The software tools analyzed include ANSYS, ABAQUS, and COMSOL Multiphysics. The study concludes with a summary of the best practices for designing and optimizing pressure vessels for improved boiler performance. The results of this study will be useful to design engineers, researchers, and manufacturers involved in the design and optimization of pressure vessels for boilers.Index Terms:-
