Pressure Vessels

The term pressure vessel refers to a closed container that contains gas or liquid at a different pressure than environment pressure. The pressure vessels have a wide scale of applications in our day-to-day lives and other industrial places. Some common examples of pressure vessels are gas cylinders, autoclaves, compressor vessels, etc.

Question

A spherical pressure vessel 400 mm in diameter with a wall thickness of 15 mm is subjected to an internal pressure of 5 MPa. The
