• Shrink-fitted cylinder
One way of creating compound vessels is to
use multiple cylinders such that the outer
diameter of the inner cylinder is larger than
the inner diameter of the outer one. The
outer cylinder can be expanded by heating,
and compresses the inner cylinder when
cooled. Multiple cylinders may be used.
• Autofrettage
The start point is a single steel tube of internal diameter. The tube
is subjected to internal pressure of sufficient magnitude to enlarge
the bore and in the process the inner layers of the metal are
stretched in tension beyond their elastic limit. This means that the
inner layers have been stretched to a point where the steel is no
longer able to return to its original shape once the internal pressure
has been removed.
