Width of Gasket Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2
N = (G_o-G_i)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Width of Gasket - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Gasket plays a vital role in the seal performance of gearbox flange assembly.
Outside Diameter of Gasket - (Measured in Meter) - Outside Diameter of Gasket is in which a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage.
Inside Diameter of Gasket - (Measured in Meter) - Inside Diameter of Gasket in which a tape or ruler measures and it measure across the gasket from the 9:00 position to the 3:00 position it measure the inside edges for the I.D. of gasket.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Outside Diameter of Gasket: 1200 Millimeter --> 1.2 Meter (Check conversion here)
Inside Diameter of Gasket: 900 Millimeter --> 0.9 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = (G_o-G_i)/2 --> (1.2-0.9)/2

Evaluating ... ...

N = 0.15

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.15 Meter -->150 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

150 Millimeter <-- Width of Gasket

< 5 Design of Vessels Subjected to External Pressure Calculators

Thickness of Flange

Go Thickness of Flange = (Diameter of Gasket at Load Reaction)*(sqrt((Design Pressure)/(Coefficient Value for Thickness of Flange*Permissible Stress)))+Corrosion Allowance

Critical Distance between Stiffeners

Go Critical Distance between Stiffeners = 1.11*Outer Diameter of Vessel*(Outer Diameter of Vessel/Wall Thickness)^0.5

Moment of Inertia of Stiffening Ring per Unit Length

Go Moment of Inertia of Stiffening Ring = ((External Pressure*(Outer Diameter of Vessel^3))/(24*Young's Modulus))

Length of Conical Head

Go Length of Conical Head = (Outside Diameter at Larger End of Cone/2)*(tan(Apex Angle))

Width of Gasket

Go Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2

Width of Gasket Formula

Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2
N = (G_o-G_i)/2

What is Gasket?

A Gasket is an elastomeric component that covers the intersection between two surfaces. They are usually manufactured from a variety of materials, including rubber, cork or paper, metal, copper, and foam. This flexible element can be used for a broad scope of purposes due to its functionality.

How to Calculate Width of Gasket?

Width of Gasket calculator uses Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2 to calculate the Width of Gasket, Width of Gasket commonly used for Standard Flange gaskets are 1/16" and 1/8". A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. Width of Gasket is denoted by N symbol.

How to calculate Width of Gasket using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Width of Gasket, enter Outside Diameter of Gasket (G_o) & Inside Diameter of Gasket (G_i) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Width of Gasket calculation can be explained with given input values -> 150000 = (1.2-0.9)/2.

FAQ

What is Width of Gasket?

Width of Gasket commonly used for Standard Flange gaskets are 1/16" and 1/8". A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression and is represented as N = (G_o-G_i)/2 or Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2. Outside Diameter of Gasket is in which a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage & Inside Diameter of Gasket in which a tape or ruler measures and it measure across the gasket from the 9:00 position to the 3:00 position it measure the inside edges for the I.D. of gasket.

How to calculate Width of Gasket?

Width of Gasket commonly used for Standard Flange gaskets are 1/16" and 1/8". A gasket is a mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression is calculated using Width of Gasket = (Outside Diameter of Gasket-Inside Diameter of Gasket)/2. To calculate Width of Gasket, you need Outside Diameter of Gasket (G_o) & Inside Diameter of Gasket (G_i).
