Credibility ,Barlow's formula can be used to estimate burst pressure of steel pipes or tubes.
P = 2 s t / (do SF)
where
P = max. working pressure (psig)
s = material strength (psi)
t = wall thickness (in)
do = outside diameter (in)
SF = safety factor (in general 1.5 to 10)
The Barlow's estimate is based on ideal conditions at room temperature.
Material StrengthThe strength of a material is determined by the tensile strength tension test, which measure the tension force and the deformation of the test specimen.
Material | Yield Strength (psi) |
Ultimate Strength (psi) |
Stainless Steel, 304 | 30,000 | 75,000 |
6 Moly, S31254 | 45,000 | 98,000 |
Duplex Stainless Steel, S31803 | 65,000 | 90,000 |
Nickel Stainless Steel, N02200 | 15,000 | 55,000 |
