Creep Behavior of Cylinders Subjected to an Internal Pressure and a Two Dimensional Temperature Field Using First Order Shear Deformation Theory

In this paper, the creep analysis in a thick-walled cylinder subjected to internal pressure and heat flux at the inner and outer surfaces has been investigated. The displacement field is obtained based on the first-order shear deformation theory and the thermal field is assumed two-dimensional through the thickness and along cylinder whose in radial direction the thermal field is considered linear. The equilibrium equations of the mechanical and thermal fields were derived using the energy method and the principle of virtual work for mechanical loading and heat flux. The creep behavior is described by Bailey-Norton’s time-dependent creep law. Analytical solutions with iteration methods have been used to obtain the stresses, strains, and displacement. The relationship between the temperature and the creep deformation was investigated by examining changes in the radial displacement by increasing the temperature by two to three times at a specific point. The effects of parameters such as pressure, heat flux and radial displacement at different temperatures on stress distribution were discussed. It was shown the circumferential stress accounts for the most changes caused by creep behavior. The presented method provides a semi-analytical solution to investigate the creep behavior of the thick-walled cylinders, which can be used for purposes such as designing and their optimization and parametric study under real temperature loading conditions.
