GB/T 40073-2021 External pressure strength test procedure for metal pressure hull of submersibles
Basic Information
Scope
This standard specifies the test purposes, test conditions, test contents and methods, as well as the test report for the external pressure strength test of the metal pressure-resistant shell (including pressure-resistant shell accessories) of submersibles.
This standard is applicable to the short-term hydrostatic external pressure test of the metal pressure-resistant shell (including pressure-resistant shell accessories) of submersibles. The external pressure strength test of other underwater devices and their pressure-bearing equipment can also be carried out in accordance with this standard.
Note: The short-term hydrostatic external pressure test is an external pressure test that does not consider the effects of inertia and acceleration, uses water as the test medium, and has a relatively short test duration.
