A cylindrical tank is required to contain a gage pressure 560 kPa . The tank is to be made of A516 grade 60 steel with a maximum allowable normal stress of 150 MPa . If the inner diameter of the tank is 3 m , what is the minimum thickness, t, of the wall

5.6 mm

Explanation:

Given that:

A cylindrical tank is required to contain a:

Gage Pressure P = 560 kPa

Allowable normal stress = 150 MPa = 150000 Kpa.

The inner diameter of the tank = 3 m

In a closed cylinder  there exist both the circumferential stress and the longitudinal stress.

Circumferential stress

Making thickness t the subject; we have

t = 0.0056 m

t = 5.6 mm

For longitudinal stress.

t = 0.0028  mm

t = 2.8 mm

From the above circumferential stress and longitudinal stress; the stress with the higher value will be considered ; which is circumferential stress and it's minimum value  with the maximum thickness = 5.6 mm

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
