MANDATORY APPENDIX 1 SUPPLEMENTARY DESIGN FORMULAS

1-1 THICKNESS OF CYLINDRICAL AND SPHERICAL SHELLS (a) The following formulas, in terms of the outside radius, are equivalent to and may be used instead of those given in UG-27(c) and (d): (1) For cylindrical shells (circumferential stress),
tp PRo SE + 0.4P or P p SEt Ro 0.4t (1)

where Ro p outside radius of the shell course under consideration (2) For spherical shells,
tp PRo 2SE + 0.8P or P p 2SEt Ro 0.8t (2)

Other symbols are as defined in UG-27. 1-2 CYLINDRICAL SHELLS (a)(1) Circumferential Stress (Longitudinal Joints). When the thickness of the cylindrical shell under internal design pressure exceeds one-half of the inside radius, or when P exceeds 0.385SE, the following formulas shall apply. The following formulas may be used in lieu of those given in UG-27(c): When P is known and t is desired,

_exp _ P SE_ 1_ p R _1 exp _P SE_ _ (1)

Where t is known and P is desired,

(2) Longitudinal Stress (Circumferential Joints). When the thickness of the cylindrical shell under internal design pressure exceeds one-half of the inside radius, or when P exceeds 1.25SE, the following formulas shall apply:

Symbols are as defined in UG-27 and 1-1. 1-3 SPHERICAL SHELLS When the thickness of the shell of a wholly spherical vessel or of a hemispherical head under internal design pressure exceeds 0.356R, or when P exceeds 0.665SE, the following formulas shall apply. The following formulas may be used in lieu of those given in UG-27(d).
