A Design Study in Centrifugal Steel Castings - Accumulator Cylinder                                  

Duplex Alloy Selection

The duplex stainless steel alloy of choice for this casting is ASTM A-890, which is available in seven different grades.

Given the mechanical property requirements for the accumulator, consider the nominal properties of three A-890 grades in the table below and choose the grade that best meets the mechanical requirements. 

ASTM A-890-Grades =>
