Longitudinal Bending
Tension Stress
Stress at saddle

S= 520.80186114 psi Stress due to internal pressure = 7500 psi

Limit of stress value of the girth seam = 17000 psi
Stress at midspan

S= 4957.4592563 psi The sum of tensional stresses = 12457.4593 psi

Is it OK? OK ^^
Compression Stress
Stress at saddle
The sum of Compression stresses = N/A psi
S = No Need psi Is it OK? hmm... it's OK

Stress at midspan

S = No Need psi

Tangential Shear Stress

Is there any ring on the saddle (Y/N)? N

If A>R/2 S = 5120.162 psi In Shell <-please use this
S= 4400 psi In Shell
If A<R/2 S= 4400 psi In Head <-don't use this
S= 2005 psi Additional stress in Head

Tangential Shear Stress

Limit of stress = 16000 psi

In Shell 5120.162 psi In Head N/A psi
Is it OK? OK ^^ Is it OK? hmm… it's OK

Stress due due to internal pressure 7500 psi

Limit of stress = 25000 psi
The sum of Add.Stress in Head N/A psi
Is it OK? hmm… it's OK
Circumferential Stress

Is it stiffened?(Y/N) N

S= -17828.5004 psi <-Just

S = 17828.5003558 psi calculation
