Oh excuse please the few data.
Well, the cylinder is made in borosilicate 3.3 or Pyrex.
diameter is 90 mm (3.54")
thickness= 2.5 mm (0.098")(thickness to check)
the working pressure is 30 psig. (max)
temperature max= 120ºC (248ºF )
Referent to thermal shock, the inicial temperature is 32ºC and the final is 120ºC in a aproximately 20 minutes.
the fluid is steam, assume saturate.
thanks advance unclesyd and someothers.

i want to know the mawp or the minimal thickness.
