section, 5m long and of 1.3 m internal diameter when the internal pressure reaches a value of
1: 2.4 bar (240 kN/m2). What will then be its change in diameter? The wall thickness of the boiler
is 25mm. E = 210 GPa and v = 0.3.
Determine the change in volume of a thin cylinder of original volume 65.5 x 10-3 m3 and length

the material of the cylinder and K = 2.1 GPa for the fluid.

to a hydraulic test. Determine the additional volume of water which it is necessary to pump into
6: the vessel, when the vessel is initially just filled with water, in order to raise the pressure to the
proof pressure of 116 bar (11.6 MPa). The bulk modulus of water is 2.9 GPa. For the material
of the vessel, E = 200 GPa, v = 0.3.

cylinder walls.

A steel thick cylinder of external diameter 150 mm has two strain gauges fixed externally, one
along the longitudinal axis and the other at right angles to read the hoop strain. The cylinder is
subjected to an internal pressure of 75 MPa and this causes the following strains: (a) hoop
9: gauge: 455x10-6 tensile
