This document discusses stresses in thick cylinders. It notes that unlike thin cylinders, thick cylinders experience non-uniform tangential stresses that decrease from the inner surface to the outer surface, as well as significant radial stresses. It provides equations to calculate the radial, tangential, and longitudinal stresses at different points in a thick cylinder wall based on the internal pressure. It also discusses using Lame's equation and the maximum principal stress theory to determine thick cylinder wall thickness. Finally, it covers compound cylinder design where a cylinder is jacketed to induce residual compressive stresses through thermal shrinking.

THICK CYLINDERS—PRINCIPAL STRESSES • Hydraulic cylinders, high-pressure pipes and gun barrels are examples of thick cylinders. • The difference between the analysis of stresses in thin and thick cylinders is as follows: (i) In thin cylinders, it is assumed that the tangential stress is uniformly distributed over the cylinder wall thickness. • In thick cylinders, the tangential stress has highest magnitude at the inner surface of the cylinder and gradually decreases towards the outer surface. (ii) The radial stress is neglected in thin cylinders, while it is of significant magnitude in case of thick cylinders.

• It is assumed that the cylinder is subjected to only internal pressure as shown in Fig. 22.4(a). Consider an elemental ring of radius r and radial thickness dr as shown in Fig. 22.4(b). • (σr) and (σt) are radial and tangential stresses respectively. Considering the equilibrium of vertical forces, σr
Neglecting the term (dr * dσr), the above expression is written as

• It is further assumed that the axial stress (σl) is uniformly distributed over the cylinder wall thickness. Therefore, the strain (εl) is constant.

When the material of the cylinder is brittle, such as cast iron or cast steel, Lame’s equation is used to determine the wall thickness. It is based on the maximum principal stress theory of failure, where maximum principal stress is equated to permissible stress for the material. As discussed in the preceding section, the three principal stresses at the inner surface of the cylinder are as follows:

Q.1 The piston rod of a hydraulic cylinder exerts an operating force of 10 kN. The friction due to piston packing and stuffing box is equivalent to 10% of the operating force. The pressure in the cylinder is 10 MPa. The cylinder is made of cast iron FG 200 and the factor of safety is 5. Determine the diameter and the thickness of the cylinder.

Compound Cylinder Design • A compound cylinder, consisting of a cylinder and a jacket is shown in Fig. 22.7(a). • The inner diameter of the jacket is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the cylinder. • When the jacket is heated, it expands sufficiently to move over the cylinder. As the jacket cools, it tends to contract onto the inner cylinder, which induces residual compressive stresses. • There is a shrinkage pressure P between the cylinder and the jacket. The pressure P tends to contract the cylinder and expand the jacket as shown in Fig. 22.7 (b) and (c).

It is jacketed by an outer steel tube, having an outer diameter of 60 mm. The tubes are assembled by a shrinking process in such a way that maximum principal stress induced in any tube is limited to 100 N/mm2. Calculate the shrinkage pressure and original dimensions of the tubes (E = 207 kN/mm2).
