Hi,

I suggest you to perform the analysis on full 3D model of the COPV instead of axisymmetric if you want to take in account the changing winding angle.
See if this knowledge material on setting up variable winding on COPV helps: How can I setup variable winding (fiber) angles on a COPV (composite overwrap pressure vessel using ACP and tables capabiliity? The fiber angle changes in the dome region and I need to account for the changing angle. - Ansys Knowledge.

Thanks!
