Stresses in A Thick-Walled, Cylindrical Pressure Vessel: Module 12-3

This spreadsheet calculates stresses in a thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessel. It provides the internal and external pressures, inner and outer radii, and calculates the radial, tangential, and longitudinal stresses at the inner and outer surfaces. The radial stress at the inner surface is -4000 Pa (compression), the tangential stress is 6667 Pa, and the uniform longitudinal stress is 1333 Pa.

about this spreadsheet.

pi = 4000 Pa Internal Pressure


po = 0.00 Pa External Pressure
a= 0.125 m Inside radius of cylinder
b= 0.250 m Outside radius of cylinder
At inside surface
sr = -4000 Pa Radial Stress at inside surface.

st = 6667 Pa Tangential stress at inside surface


At outside surface
sr = 0 Pa Radial Stress at outside surface.

st = 2667 Pa Tangential stress at outside surface

If the vessel has closed ends, there will be a uniform longitudinal stress
distributed uniformily over the wall in the longitudinal direction.
sl = 1333 Pa Longitudinal stress (uniform)
