Characterization Hardware Case Thickness


The main stress exerted by the internal pressure on the cylinder is hoop stress. The equation for hoop stress can be found here: https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/stress-thick-walled-tube-d_949.html

Variables:

  • max internal pressure: 3000 psi
  • outside pressure: atmospheric (14.7 psi)
  • inner radius: 1.75"
  • outer radius: found to be >1.9"
