POLAR BOSSES FOR COMPOSITE PRESSURE VESSELS; A PRIMER ON DESIGN AND ANAYSIS


Hansho Composites' special comprehensive report on Theory, Testing, and Manufacturing of Polar Bosses for Type 4 Composite Pressure Vessels

Keys to success for LPG, CNG, Hydrogen, and other gases

Metal neck polar bosses are the critical component for successful Type 4 composite pressure vessels.This new report reveals secret keys for success.

Metal neck polar boss end fittings look simple and yet are often very difficult and frustrating. Polar bosses must provide high strength necks and domes, maintain leakproof high pressure gas sealing, be reliable for 20 years’ service life, and yet be low cost. Many of the successful methods are patented, which provides additional challenges to new manufacturers.

This report is based on 30+ years’ experience and hard-won lessons from designing, testing, and manufacturing aerospace and industrial composite pressure vessels. The report covers:

  • Design for strength of neck and flanges,

  • Structural analysis methods, classic Excel calculations and FEA

  • Pressure sealing – comparison of common methods.

  • Polymer molding and assembly for low cost manufacturing

  • Summary of current patents.

  • Trouble-shooting recommendations.

REPORT or IN-PERSON SEMINAR: This report can be obtained as a written report, a webinar, or – the best way - Hansho’s experts can provide a comprehensive training class at your location.
