I have been looking all over the web and can find nothing...How do I calculate this? Please help if you can..thankyou
The maximum pressure that a %99.9 pure tungsten tube can withstand depends on various factors such as the tube's diameter, wall thickness, and length. However, on average, tungsten tubes can withstand pressures ranging from 15,000 to 20,000 psi (pounds per square inch).
The purity of tungsten plays a crucial role in its ability to withstand pressure. %99.9 pure tungsten has a high melting point and excellent tensile strength, making it more resistant to deformation and damage under high pressure.
Yes, %99.9 pure tungsten tubes have a higher ability to withstand pressure compared to other materials such as steel or aluminum. This is due to its high strength and resistance to deformation, making it a preferred choice for high-pressure applications.
Tungsten alloys with a higher percentage of tungsten (such as %99.95 pure tungsten) have a slightly better ability to withstand pressure compared to %99.9 pure tungsten. However, the difference is minimal, and %99.9 pure tungsten is still a highly reliable choice for high-pressure applications.
While %99.9 pure tungsten has excellent pressure resistance, it also has its limitations. At extremely high pressures (above 20,000 psi), tungsten tubes may start to deform or fail. It is essential to consider the specific application and consult with a material expert to determine the appropriate pressure limit for a %99.9 pure tungsten tube.
