Problem:

What value must be inputted as overpressure for Load conditions - Blast calculation in AutoPIPE Vessel ?

Answer:

 This is the value which allow to obtain in the calculation as an external pressure the value equal to the overpressure minus the internal pressure of the vessel. 

For example:

Overpressure = 50 MPa; Internal pressure of the vessel = 2.5 MPa 

•  External pressure used for blast = 47.5 MPa (50 - 2.5)
