External Pressure Calculation Results :

Maximum External Pressure
Determine Parameter [Mx]:
= L / sqrt( Ro * t )
= 60000.000/sqrt( 4058.500 * 57.000 )
= 124.747
Compute the Factor [Ch]:
0.94
-1.058
Since Mx > 13 and Mx < 2 * (Do/t) , Ch = 1.12 * Mx
-1.058
= 1.12 * 124.747
= 0.0068
Elastic Hoop Compressive Membrane Failure Stress [Fhe]:
= 1.6 * Ch * Ey * ( t / Do )
= 1.6 * 0.007 * 204100 * ( 57.000/8117.000 )
= 15.562 N/mm
Ratio of Elastic Hoop Compressive Membrane Failure Stress to Yield [Fr]:
= Fhe / Fy
= 15.6/344.8
= 0.045

Allowable Circumferential Compressive Stress [Fha]:

Since Fr <= 0.552, Fha = Fhe/FS
= 15.562/2.000
= 7.781 N/mm
Allowable External Pressure at the given Thickness [Pa]:
= 2 * Fha * ( t / Do )
= 2 * 7.781 * ( 57.000/8117.000 )
= 0.109 N/mm
