 CYLINDRICAL SHELL

• Inside Diameter :
– Use UG – 27

S E (t – CA) P (R + CA )
P = ------------------------------ t = -----------------------
(R+CA) + 0.6 (t – CA) SE - 0.6 P

Where :
 S = Maximum allowable stress from section II D
 R = Inside Radius
 CA = Corrosion Allowance
 E = Joint Efficiency or Ligament efficiency

– Note : 12.5 % under tolerance to be applied on pipes

 CYLINDRICAL SHELL

• Outside Diameter :
– Use Appendix 1-1

S E (t – CA) P Ro
P = ------------------------------ t = ------------------
Ro - 0.4 (t – CA) Ro + 0.4 P

Where :
 S = Maximum allowable stress from section II D
 Ro = Outside Radius
 CA = Corrosion Allowance
 E = Joint Efficiency or Ligament efficiency

– Note : 12.5 % under tolerance to be applied on pipes
