Abstract
– Pressure vessels often have a combination of high pressure together with high temperature such as gun barrels and high pressure hydraulic rams. For high pressure application, the cylindrical vessels are made to withstand the working pressure. These types of pressure vessels are made by two techniques, one is shrink-fit cylinders and other one is autofrettage cylinders. Autofrettage technique is used to ensure the pressure vessel highly strengthened due to prestressed effect causing the internal portion of the part to yield and resulting in internal compressive residual stresses. The present work is concerned about the elastoplastic stress analysis of thick cylinders. The numerical analysis is carried out on four different materials which are widely used in pressure vessels by using finite element software ANSYS. The elastic breakdown pressure, overstrain pressure, and bursting pressure of the cylinder are found out and the results are compared with experimental results.
