PRECISION AND STABILITY OF THE PREDICTION FORMULA FOR BURST STRENGTH OF PRESSURE-BEARING CYLINDER by LIU Cen, YANG Fan, WU SengLin, HONG Kai, ZHANG Shu, LIU XiaoNing

“…Based on the study that the ratio of actual burst pressure to the formula calculated value was basically in accordance with the normal distribution random variables, comparing and evaluation the formula stability from the variation coefficient of distribution parameters fluctuation range,comparing and evaluation the formula precision from the distribution parameters value interval contact ratio.When the bilateral confidence was 98% and in the applied range of the formula,the stability and precision of Mid-diameter formula,Tresca formula,Faupel formula and Rheological stress formula were compared and evaluated. The researching results shown that:（ 1） It is the basic conditions for selecting formulas or extending their applied ranges that stability and precision not reduced.（ 2） For pressure-bearing single-layer cylinder,the applied range of the Mid-diameter formula for measured burst pressure specified by the standard,it can be extended from no more than 105 MPa to no more than 329. 6 MPa,the stability of the Mid-diameter formula is obviously improved and the precision is not reduced. …”
