Thickness of Pipe given Critical External Pressure Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Thickness of Pipe = Critical Pressure/((5*Modulus of Elasticity)/(3*Diameter of Pipe))^(1/3)
t_pipe = P_cr/((5*E_pa)/(3*D_pipe))^(1/3)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Thickness of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Pipe is the smaller dimension of pipe. It is the distance between the inner and outer or front and back surfaces of the pipe.
Critical Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Critical Pressure is the maximum pressure developed in the pipe that will cause it's buckling in absence of stiffening rings.
Modulus of Elasticity - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Elasticity is a quantity that measures an object or substance's resistance to being deformed elastically when stress is applied to it in pascal.
Diameter of Pipe - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Pipe is the diameter of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Critical Pressure: 2.82 Pascal --> 2.82 Pascal No Conversion Required
Modulus of Elasticity: 1.64 Pascal --> 1.64 Pascal No Conversion Required
Diameter of Pipe: 0.91 Meter --> 0.91 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_pipe = P_cr/((5*E_pa)/(3*D_pipe))^(1/3) --> 2.82/((5*1.64)/(3*0.91))^(1/3)

Evaluating ... ...

t_pipe = 1.95448364157067

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.95448364157067 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.95448364157067 ≈ 1.954484 Meter <-- Thickness of Pipe
