In this study, the resistance of liquefied-petroleum gas (LPG) tanks produced from carbon steel sheet metal of different thicknesses has been investigated by bursting pressure experiments and non-linear Finite Element Method (FEM) method by increasing internal pressure values. The designs of LPG tanks produced from sheet metal to be used at the study have been realized by analytical calculations made taking into consideration of related standards. Bursting pressure tests have been performed that were inclined to decreasing the sheet thickness of LPG tanks used in industry. It has been shown that the LPG tanks can be produced in compliance with the standards when the sheet thickness is lowered from 3 to 2.8mm. The FEM results have displayed close values with the bursting results obtained from the experiments.
在本研究中，通过爆破压力实验以及增加内部压力值的非线性有限元法（FEM），对由不同厚度碳钢薄板制成的液化石油气（LPG）罐的抗性进行了研究。本研究中使用的由薄板制成的LPG罐的设计，是通过考虑相关标准进行的分析计算实现的。已经进行了倾向于降低工业中使用的LPG罐薄板厚度的爆破压力测试。结果表明，当薄板厚度从3毫米降低到2.8毫米时，LPG罐仍可按照标准生产。有限元法的结果与实验获得的爆破结果显示出相近的值。
