EN 14025: Tanks for the transport of dangerous goods
Program DescriptionWith the ADR module the required minimum thicknesses and the calculation pressure according to EN 14025 and ADR can be calculated. Appendix A of EN 14025 quotes extracts from ADR (European Con-vention on the Transport of Dangerous Goods) and RID (Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail). EN 14025 requires consideration of a dynamic pressure Pdyn under twice the gravitational acceleration 2*g in axial direction. The calculation pressure PC acc. to ADR depends also on the vapor pressure at 50°C pvap and the boiling point (over or under 35°C). A table for the test pressure is given in EN 14025 Appendix A.4. The minimum thickness acc. to ADR/RID is calculated with equations (A.3), (A.4) and (A.5). Some condi-tions for the material according to Appendix A are checked. The input data and required equations are listed in the calculation mask of the program. |
