CerebroPV is an easy-to-use PC program to assist in the evaluation and design of vertical and horizontal storage tanks, running either pressurized or at atmospheric conditions. Using input data such as principal dimensions, fluid density, material, desired tank shape (including heads) and support type, the software calculates structural characteristics for both the tank and the support structure using ASME Section VIII Division 1 standards.This software allows both users and manufacturers of pressure vessels to check their equipment for various operating conditions, in order to provide a risk assessment. The program produces output in the form of a Microsoft Word Document, with all data listed in tabular form, together with a scale drawing of the tank and its support structure.
