Cylinder and Pressure Vessel
1]Circumferential /Hoop stress/Tangential:
Exerted circumferentially on every particle in the cylinder wall.
• Can be imagined as a band surrounding a barrel.
• When barrel expands, the band stretches and undergoes stress.
3]Radial stress: (Compressive)
Caused by the design pressures acting through the wall thickness
(neglected). As P small
2]Longitudinal stress:
Parallel to the axis of cylindrical
Stretching the shell
circumferentially
Stresses in Thin Cylinder
Tangential/Circumferential/Hoop stress
Stress in Thin Cylinder
Assumption:
Hoop stress is uniformly distributed through t
(Because t is small in) Cylinder
Longitudinal/Axial Stress
Radial Stress in Thin Cylinder (σr)
Pi : Very Less : σr is neglected
t : Less
Assumption:
Radial stress is neglected as P is very small

Cylinder with External Pressure (Po)
: Pre-Stressing
When subjected to Pi ,
Hoop stress σt limits pressure capacity
Autofrettage is method to increase the
pressure capacity of cylinder
Used for HP Cylinder, Gun Barrels
• Cylinder subjected to immense pressure, which causes
the internal parts of the vessel to yield, thus resulting in
internal compressive residual stresses.
•It increases pressure capacity of cylinder
•Residuals compressive stresses close the cracks
•For same thickness cylinder can be used for Pi more than designed.
Wire under tension is closely wound the cylinder results in
residual compressive stresses
