Creep Analysis of Thick Walled Cylinder under Constant Internal Pressure

Abstract:

In this work, the creep analysis of thick-walled rotating cylinder made of Aluminum Silicon Carbide under internal pressure has been investigated taking some assumptions, viz. no change in the volume of the cylinder, cylinder material is anisotropic, principal axes coincides with the axes of anisotropy, effective stress is dependent upon effective strain rate, and there is zero strain in the axial direction (Z direction in polar coordinate). Sherby’s law has been used to calculate the creep rate. After finding the formulas for radial, tangential and axial stresses for anisotropic cylinder, the findings have been validated by checking the values and comparing the graphs for an isotropic cylinder case with one of the already published research for isotropic cylinders with similar conditions. The graphs plotted in cases of anisotropic cylinder, enables us to conclude that despite large stress values in the radial and tangential directions, the creep rates in such cylinders were found to be approximately zero. This led to deduce that anisotropy is very helpful in designing long-lasting cylinders. In corollary, anisotropy helps in minimizing creep behaviour in radial and tangential directions.
