Transcribed Image Text:1. A cylindrical pressure vessel is fabricated from steel plates which have a thickness of 20
mm. The diameter of the pressure vessel is 601 mm and its length is 4 meters. Determine
the maximum internal pressure which can be applied if the stress in the steel is limited to
140 MPa.
2. Calculate the minimum wall thickness for a cylindrical vessel. The diameter of the vessel
is 8.5 meters and the stress is limited to 47 MPa. It is filled with motor oil.
w- unit weight of motor oil = 8.95 KN/m
