Question

a cross section of a hollow circular pipe shows that its inner diameter is 2 1/10 inches and that the pipe is 3/5 inche thick. what its outside diamerter (od)?

Answer 1

We have the following relationship:

OD = ID + 2 TH

...where OD is the pipe's outer diameter, ID is its inner diameter, and TH is the pipe's thickness. Plugging in the values, we obtain:

OD = (2.1 in) + 2(0.6 in)

OD = 2.1 + 1.2 in

OD = 3.3 in

Thus, the pipe's total (outer) diameter is 3.3 inches.

Answer 2

3.3 inch OD is the calculated value.

Probably a little error in the measurement,

Likely 3-inch NPS XXH steel pipe. See link below.

Answer 3

The OD = ID + 2xWall Thkness

        OD = 2 1/10 + 2(6/10)  = 2 1/10 + 12/10 = 2 13/10

        OD = 3 3/10in

Answer 4

*Check the ID of pipe.It should be 2.3 in instead of 2.1 in.

*Outside diameter

=inside diameter+2*thickness of the pipe.

=2 1/10 inch + 2* 3/5 inch

=2.1 + 2*0.6

=2.1 + 1.2

=3.3 inch.

1.Kindly go through the following links and you will find that your pipe is tailer made.

2.Also, it depends upon the standards you are using.

3.What is the moc of the pipe?

4.Upto 12 inch your od of the pipe remains same,AND you will not find 3.3 inch od in any mostly used standards.

5.Even 2.5 NB in XXS Pipe is having a max thickness of 0.552 inch.

Your nearest size should be:

3 in NB,3.5 IN.OD,0.6 INCH thick,xx heavy.

6.Pipe is always hollow.Shape is generally circular.
