- Abstract
This paper analyses and resolves the extremely complex problems of performing the technological operation of straightening of the steel plates and strips intended for the manufacture of static equipment, of the type pressure vessels and storage tanks, for petroleum refineries and petrochemical plants. The procedure and software product developed by the authors for the design of the technological operation of straightening of the steel plates and strips on straightening machines with multiple rollers highlights the parameters describing the regime for the straightening operation and the modalities for the adequate selection of their values, as well as the factors influencing the shape precision of the straightened semiproducts and the energy input needed to perform the straightening operation. The information from the present paper is extremely useful for the selection and rational exploitation of the straightening machines and, in this manner, for the appropriate quality assurance of the semi-products intended for the construction of static equipment, with special technical parameters (big overall dimensions and masses, high operating pressures, high or low operating temperatures, aggressive working fluids etc.), from the petroleum and gas processing plants.
