Abstract

The normalized stress intensity factor (SIF) range of an inner-surface circumferential crack in a thin to thick-walled finite-length cylinder under thermal striping was considered in this paper. The edges of the cylinder were rotation-restrained and the outer surface was adiabatically insulated. The inner surface of the cylinder was heated by a fluid with sinusoidal temperature fluctuation. An analytical temperature solution for the problem and our semianalytical numerical SIF evaluation method for the crack were combined and, as a result, it was shown that the transient SIF solution can be expressed in a generalized form by dimensionless parameters such as mean-radius-to-wall-thickness ratio, Biot number, normalized striping frequency, and Fourier number. Finally, normalized SIF ranges for the first cycle and steady state were given for these dimensionless parameters in tables for mean-radius-to-wall-thickness ratio of 10, 5, and 1.
