You have been assigned to design an open cylindrical storage tank 4 meters tall with a diameter of 8 meters to be made out of A-36 steel. The tank will hold a fluid with density of rho = 1.2 g/cm^3 (or 1200 kg/m^3 ). Using a safety factor of 4, what wall thickness is required?

The required wall thickness is m

Explanation:

Given:

Fluid density

Diameter of tank m

Length of tank m

F.S = 4

For A-36 steel yield stress MPa,

Allowable stress

  MPa

Pressure force is given by,

Pa

Now for a vertical pipe,

Where required thickness

m

Therefore, the required wall thickness is m
