Cylindrical shell: volume increase, 6 N/mm2 pressure
Short answer
Shell expansion ΔV_shell=1.919×10⁵ mm³, water compression ΔV_w=8.078×10⁵ mm³. Additional water required = total 9.997×10⁵ mm³ ≈999.7 cm³.
A cylindrical shell of length 4 m internal diameter 300 mm and wall thickness of 12 mm is initially filled with water at atmospheric pressure. Find the increase in volume if the water is pumped to increase the internal pressure to . Take , and .
The extra water pumped in must fill two things: the increase in the volume of the shell (it expands) and the reduction in the volume of the water already inside (water is compressed).
Data: mm, mm, mm, , , , .
Increase in shell volume
Compression of the water
Additional water required
Answer: additional volume of water (of which 191.9 cm³ is the expansion of the shell).
