This equation for stress computes the radial stress ( $σ_{r}$ $sigma_r$ ) on the inner wall of a cylindrical pressure vessel.¹ The radial stress is same around the inner circumference of the wall of a cylinder. For this equation the outer pressure is assumed to be $P_{o} = 0$ $P_o = 0$ .

Inputs

The stress is computed from: /attachments/ec9e33d8-b618-11e4-a9fb-bc764e2038f2/stress on inner cylinder.png

P - the pressure inside the closed cylinder
