This document summarizes the calculations for determining the required thickness of a semi-ellipsoidal head on a pressure vessel. It provides the design parameters such as an internal pressure of 5.2 MPa and external pressure of 0.1 MPa. It then shows the calculations for minimum required thickness according to different code requirements, finding a minimum of 46 mm which satisfies the maximum allowable working pressure of 5.471 MPa internally and 3.28 MPa externally.
