How does a pressure vessel handle internal pressure? π€
In this short, we explore longitudinal stress in a thin cylindrical pressure vessel.
When pressure acts inside the cylinder, it tries to pull the vessel apart along its length.
Balancing the internal pressure force with resisting stress gives:
π Οβ = pD / 4t
This is a fundamental concept used in designing pipelines, boilers, and pressure tanks.
