【正文】 形式，頒布了 ASNI/ASME鍋爐和壓力容器規(guī)范。這部規(guī)范一直延續(xù)到 1968版。 1951 年，最后的API——ASME規(guī)范以獨(dú)立的文件頒布。第一版本在 1934 年頒布。該規(guī)則適用于直徑大于 6英寸，容積大于 高于 30Pa 的容器。這是 ASME鍋爐和壓力容器規(guī)范各篇的開始，最后變成了 第一篇《動力鍋爐》。 1915年 2月 13日，第一部鍋爐規(guī)范ASME被頒布。這個規(guī)范總共有三頁。在這次事故之后，馬塞諸塞州州長指揮成立了鍋爐規(guī)范委員會。 1905 年，在馬塞諸塞州布魯克市的一家制鞋廠里，一個火管鍋爐的毀滅性爆炸造成 58人死亡， 117 人受傷和 400000 美元的財產(chǎn)損失 。 1865 年 4 月 27 日，在密西西比河輪船 Sultana 號上，一個火管鍋爐爆炸導(dǎo)致船在二十分鐘內(nèi)沉沒，使內(nèi)戰(zhàn)后回家的 1500 名士兵死亡。 and others relate to care and inspection of installed equipment. The following Sections specifically relate to boiler and pressure vessel design and construction.

The addenda are permissive at the date of issuance and bee mandatory six months after that date. Worldwide Pressure Vessel Codes In addition to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, which is used worldwide, many other pressure vessel codes have been legally adopted in various countries. Difficulty often occurs when vessels are designed in one country, built in another country, and installed in still a different country. With this worldwide construction this is often the case. The following list is a partial summary of some of the various codes used in different countries: Australia Australian Code for Boilers and Pressure Vessels, SAA Boiler Code (Series AS1200): AS1210, Unfired Pressure Vessels and Class 1 H, Pressure Vessels of Advanced Design and Construction, Standards Association of Australia. France Construction Code Calculation Rules for Unfired Pressure Vessels, Syndicat National de la Chaudronnerie et de la Tuyauterie Industrielle (SNCT), Paris, France.

A firetube boiler explosion on the Mississippi River steamboat Sultana on April 27, 1865, resulted in the boat’ s sinking within 20 minutes and the death of 1500 soldiers going home after the Civil War. This type of catastrophe continued unabated into the early 1900s. In 1905, a destructive explosion of a firetube boiler in a shoe factory in Brockton, Massachusetts, killed 58 people, injured 117 others, and did $ 400000 in property damage. In 1906, another explosion in a shoe factory in Lynn, Massachusetts, resulted in death, injury, and extensive property damage. After this accident, the Massachusetts governor directed the formation of a Board of Boiler Rules. The first set of rules for the design and construction of boilers was approved in Massachusetts on August 30, 1907. This code was three pages long. In 1911, Colonel E. D. Meier, the president of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, established a mittee to write a set of rules for the design and construction of boilers and pressure vessels. On February 13, 1915, the first ASME Boiler Code was issued. It was entitled ―Boiler Construction Code, 1914 Edition.‖ This was the beginning of the various sections of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, which ultimately became Section 1, Power Boiler. The first ASME Code for pressure vessels was issued as ―Rules for the Construction of Unfired Pressure Vessels, ‖ Section Ⅷ , 1925 edition. The rules applied to vessels over 6 in. in diameter, volume over ft3, and pressure over 30 psi. In December 1931, a Joint APIASME Committee was formed to develop an unfired pressure vessel code for the petroleum industry. The first edition was issued in 1934. For the next 17 years, two separated unfired pressure vessel codes existed. In 1951, the last APIASME Code was issued as a separated document. In 1952, the two codes were consolidated into one codethe ASME Unfired Pressure Vessel Code,Section Ⅷ . This continued until the 1968 edition. At that time, the original code became Section Ⅷ , Division 1, Pressure Vessels, and another new part was issued, which was Section Ⅷ , Division 2, Alternative Rules for Pres
