GUNT system enables hands-on study of stress and strain distribution in thin-walled cylinders under internal pressure, commonly found in pressure vessels, boilers, and pipes.
Product Features
- Designed for analysis of internal pressure effects on thin-walled vessels
- Oil-filled cylindrical vessel with movable piston and closing lid
- Manual piston operation using hand wheel with threaded spindle
- Supports both biaxial (closed vessel) and uniaxial (open vessel) stress states
- Hydraulic pump generates internal pressure, monitored by manometer
- Strain gauges mounted on vessel surface to measure strain distribution
- Measured data displayed via strain gauge amplifier
- Data can be transferred to software for visual evaluation and analysis
- Mohr’s stress circle used to determine principal strains graphically
- Elasticity law applied to calculate principal stresses from strain readings
Benefits
- Ideal for training in structural and mechanical engineering principles
- Practical application of Mohr's circle and elasticity theory
- Builds understanding of real-world design scenarios for pressure vessels
