30 Comments:31 - This program calculates thickness corrected cones where
32 the inside of the large end of the cone touches the inside
33 of the large pipe and where the outside of the small end of the
34 cone touches the outside of the small pipe.
35 - Ri, Ro and all lines share the same origin.
36 - The prebend tabs shown here are used for some pyramid
37 rollers if required.
38 - If a brake press is used to bend the cone, then all bend lines
39 should pass through the origin.
40 - This program assumes that the large pipe has the same thickness as the cone. The thickness of the small pipe is ignored.
41 - Adjust the length of the cone if required to get the desired cone angle GB.
42 - This program is intended for educational use only. Pressure Vessel Engineering Ltd. Is not responsible for its use.
