A thick steel closed pressure vessel, 200mm inside diameter and 400mm outside diameter, is subjected to an internal pressure of 100MPa and an external pressure of 50MPa. Calculate the following: a. The circumferential stress on the outside and the inside layers b. The longitudinal stress c. The circumferential strain in the outside and the inside layers (D)39) (4) 3 (3) d. The change in the inner diameter and the outer diameter e. Calculate the change in internal volume per unit length of the pressure vessel. Assume E=300 GPa and 9-0.25.
