A thin-walled pipe of 10 cm diameter is used to carry hot steam at a pressure of 2.5 MPa. The pipe is made with a steel with Young's modulus of 200 GPa, yield strength of 1000 MPa and fractur...
(b) A thin-walled pipe of 10 cm diameter is used to carry hot steam at a pressure of 2.5 MPa. The pipe is made with a steel with Young's modulus of 200 GPa, yield strength of 1000 MPa and fracture toughness (Kic) of 2.85x10 Nm32. Determine the minimum thickness of the pipe using the leak-before-break criterion assuming a semi-circular shape of the cracks in the vessel wall and a safety factor of 9.

MEE2001/2015 Q5. A thin walled steel cylinder with 10 mm wall thickness and internal diameter of 200 mm (Fig. Q5) is subjected to an internal pressure, p. The steel used for the cylinder has a yield stress of 240 MPa. +F 200 mm Fig. Q5 (a) If a tensile axial force of 1MN is applied to the end plate, show that the maximum internal pressure that can be applied before the cylinder yields according to the Tresca criterion is 16.2...
a cylindrical tank is made from A-36 OBLEM 2: The cylindrical tank is made from A-36 steel with a yield strength ayie 250 MPa, modulus ef elasticity &-200 GPa and Poisson's ratio v 0.3. When the tank is pressuri pressure p, a 60 strain rosette mounted on the surface measures the following strains: & 100(10), 343(10), maximum-distortion-energy theory, to determine the factor of safety against yielding (c) Find the internal pressure p acting within the tank. (30 Points) 343(10) Use...
