PRESSURIZED CYLINDER FORMULA
(OP)
Which is the formula to calculate the minimum wall thickness required ,of a pressurized cylinder?
Can I take the pump casing as a pressurized cylinder in order to calculate "minimum wall thickness"?
Many thanks in advance





RE: PRESSURIZED CYLINDER FORMULA
formula(s) for a cylinder under internal pressure. If not, your second option is to use Barlow's formula below with some level of safety factor;
hoop stress = [pressure *outer radius/wall thickness]
Set the hoop stress default value as a percentage of yield strength (50%) to assure no permanent deformation. The above equation assumes a thin wall cylinder (based on a ratio of r/t greater than 5). More elaborate equations are used for thick-walled cylinders.
