Chapter 14 Problem 14.74

Question

Determine the largest internal pressure that can be applied to a cylindrical tank of 5.5-ft outer diameter and \(\frac{5}{8}-\mathrm{in.}\) wall thickness if the ultimate normal stress of the steel used is 65 ksi and a factor of safety of 5.0 is desired.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 14 problem number 74 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Determine the largest internal pressure that can be applied to a cylindrical tank of 5.5-ft outer diameter and \(\frac{5}{8}-\mathrm{in.}\) wall thickness if the ultimate normal stress of the steel used is 65 ksi and a factor of safety of 5.0 is desired.
From the textbook chapter Transformation of Stress you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
