Question

Define thin cylinders. Name the stresses setup in thin cylinders subjected to internal fluid pressure.(4M)

Answer 1

Explanation:

Thin cylinder is cylinder whose wall thickness is lesser than 1/20 times of its internal diameter. (If d =400mm then its thickn... Cylinder is a Mechanical device, which is used for supplying, carrying, storing, or processing of the fluids (liquids, gases or mixture sometimes slurry) under pressure.

Answer 2

Define thin cylinders. Name the stresses setup in thin cylinders subjected to internal fluid pressure.

• A thin mechanical cylinder is defined as a cylinder with an internal diameter that is much greater than its wall thickness, or a vessel that has a wall thickness that is less than one twentieth of its internal diameter.
• Fluids under pressure are kept in closed vessels. The cylindrical vessel is referred to as a thin cylinder if the ratio of shell thickness to internal radius is less than one tenth.
• Narrow Cylinders Cylinders are often used for carrying or storing liquids, gases, or other fluids in various engineering applications. example: Tanks, pipes, boilers, etc. Fluid pressures are applied to these cylinders.
• Failure of thin cylinders due to internal fluid pressure caused by the development of longitudinal and circumferential stresses Radial pressure in thin cylinders refers to the internal pressure that is acting radially inside the cylinder.
• Circumferential stress, also known as hoop stress, and tangential (azimuth) stress are two common cylinder stress patterns. A normal tension parallel to the cylindrical symmetry axis is known as an axial stress. radial stress, a regular stress in planes parallel to but opposite the symmetry axis
• a narrow pressure container with closed ends that holds fluid at gauge pressure "P." The cylinder's walls will then experience both circumferential or "hoop" tension and longitudinal stress. pressure vessel rupture Hoop stress will arise from longitudinally.
