Depth of Torispherical Head Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Depth of Torispherical Head?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
ho=Rco-(((Rco)-(Do2))((Rco)+(Do2)-(2Rko)))0.5
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
ho=0.05m-(((0.05m)-(0.013m2))((0.05m)+(0.013m2)-(20.012m)))0.5
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
ho=0.05-(((0.05)-(0.0132))((0.05)+(0.0132)-(20.012)))0.5
Next Step Evaluate
ho=0.0124001329789586m
LAST Step Rounding Answer
ho=0.0124m

Depth of Torispherical Head Formula Elements

Variables
