Radial Stress Thin-wall Section Formula

\(\large{ \sigma_r = \frac{ p \; r }{ 10 \; t } }\)     (Radial Stress Thin-wall Section)

\(\large{ p = \frac{ \sigma_r \; 10 \; t }{ r } }\) 

\(\large{ r = \frac{ \sigma_r \; 10 \; t }{ p } }\) 

\(\large{ t = \frac{ p \; r }{ \sigma_r \; 10 } }\) 

Solve for σr

pressure, p
radius, r
wall thickness, t

Solve for p

 Symbol English Metric
\(\large{ \sigma_r }\)  (Greek symbol sigma) = radius stress \(\large{\frac{lbf}{in^2}}\) \(\large{Pa}\)
\(\large{ p }\) = pressure under consideration \(\large{\frac{lbf}{in^2}}\) \(\large{Pa}\)
\(\large{ r }\) = radius to point of intrest \(\large{ in }\) \(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ t }\)  (Greek symbol sigma) = wall thickness \(\large{ in }\) \(\large{ mm }\)
