Longitudinal Stress Thin-wall Section Formula

\( \sigma_l =  p \; r \;/\; 2 \; t \)     (Longitudinal Stress Thin-wall Section)

\( p =  \sigma_l \; 2 \; t \;/\; r \)

\( 2 = p \; r \;/\; \sigma_l \; t \)

\( t =  p \; r \;/\; \sigma_l \; 2 \)

\( r =  \sigma_l \; 2 \; t \;/\; p \)

Symbol English Metric
\( \sigma_l \)  (Greek symbol sigma) = longitudinal stress \(lbf\;/\;in^2\)  \( Pa \)
\( p \) = internal pressure \(lbf\;/\;in^2\)  \( Pa \)
\( r \) = radius to point of intrest \( in \) \( mm \)
\( t \)  (Greek symbol sigma) = wall thickness \( in \) \( mm \)
