Calculate Hoop Pressure





Formula

The formula to calculate the hoop pressure (P_h) is:

Ph=Pi×rit

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the internal pressure (P_i) is 500,000 Pa, the internal radius (r_i) is 0.5 m, and the wall thickness (t) is 0.05 m. Using the formula:

Ph=500000×0.50.05

We get:

Ph=5000000Pa

So, the hoop pressure is 5,000,000 Pascals.
