THERMAL ANALYSIS OF CONICAL SHELLS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4021989
The differential equation of a conical shell subjected to axisymmetrical temperature distributions is derived. The temperature distribution may vary in the meridional direction and linearly through the thickness, and, in order to obtain a particular solution to the differential equation, the expression for the temperature distribution is assumed to be the sum of a hyperbolic and a cubic function. The particular solution is superposed on the general solution for pressure and axial loading. All the formulas for a complete analysis are given and an example is solved. Approximating an exponential temperature function by the function described above is discussed. (auth)
