Ellipsoidal head
There are 2 types of Ellipsoidal heads: Ellipsoidal head 2:1 acc. ASME VIII Div. 1 and 2 Ellipsoidal head 1,9:1 acc. NF E 81-103
The dimension values 2:1 respectively 1,9:1 are the ratio between the small and the large axis of the ellipses. Both head shapes correspond nearly to the geometry of the Semi-ellipsoidal head acc. DIN 28013. The dimensions can be approximately calculated as follows:
The standard is valid for one-piece dished heads with and without welding seam with an outside diameter Da <= 4000 mm and a nominal wall thickness s<= 50 mm. Tolerances for height, circumference, unroundness, thickness etc. can be taken from the specification for a torispherical head acc. DIN 28011.
