Longitudinal Hoop Stress Thick-walled Section (Internal & External Pressure)
Longitudinal Hoop Stress Thick-walled Section (Internal & External Pressure) Formula |
||
\( \sigma_h \;=\; [\; (p_i \; r_i^2) - (p_e \; r_e^2) \;] \;/\; [\; r_e^2 \;-\;r_i^2 \;] \) | ||
Symbol | English | Metric |
\( \sigma_h \) (Greek symbol sigma) = Hoop Stress | \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) | \(Pa\) |
\( p_i \) = Internal Pressure | \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) | \(Pa\) |
\( r_i \) = Internal Radius | \( in \) | \( mm \) |
\( p_e \) = External Pressure | \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) | \(Pa\) |
\( r_e \) = External Radius | \( in \) | \( mm \) |
\( r \) = Radius to Point of Intrest | \( in \) | \( mm \) |
