Circumferential Tensile stress in a boiler is, sigma = (P.d)/(2t)----1.

Axial Tensile stress in a boiler is, sigma = (P.d)/(4t)----2.

Now the ratio is = (Equation 1)/(Equation 2).

Answer: 2.
(1)

Circumferential Tensile stress in a boiler is, sigma = (P.d)/(2t) - (equation 1).
Axial Tensile stress in a boiler is, sigma = (P.d)/(4t) - (equation 2).
Now, the ratio is = (Equation 1)/(Equation 2).

Answer is = 2.
