Question

1. A steel cylinder of 1 metre diameter is carrying a fluid under a pressure of 10 N/mm?. Calculate the
necessary wall thickness, if the tensile stress is not to exceed 100 MPa.
2. A steam boiler, 1.2 metre in diameter, generates steam at a gauge pressure of 0.7 N/mm2. Assuming
[Ans. 50 mm)
the efficiency of the riveted joints as 75% , find the thickness of the shell. Given that ultimate tensile
stress = 385 MPa and factor of safety = 5.
3. Find the thickness of a cast iron cylinder 250 mm in diameter to carry a pressure of 0.7 N/mm2. Take
[Ans. 7.3 mm]
maximum tensile stress for cast iron as 14 MPa.
[Ans. 6.25 mm]
