A Review of Jacketed Vessels, is an online course designed to familiarize the student with jacketed vessels and their ASME Section VIII, Division 1 requirements. After reviewing the different types of jacketed vessels, students learn about the associated pressures, loadings, and temperatures. Next, students receive an overview of Section VIII, Division 1 Appendix 9 and the rules governing design and construction of jacketed vessels. The training concludes with discussing pressure testing and markings, and how data reports for jacketed vessels are completed.
