10-53. Air is pumped into the steel thin-walled pressure vessel at C . If the ends of the vessel are closed using two pistons connected by a rod AB , determine the increase in the diameter of the pressure vessel when the internal gauge pressure is 5 MPa. Also, what is the tensile stress in rod AB if it has a diameter of 100 mm? The inner radius of the vessel is 400 mm, and its thickness is 10 mm. E st = 200 GPa and n st = 0.3 | |
