InstructionsHow to use this spreadsheetSome general notes:Hull is cylindrical with sperical endcapsSame material used throughoutOptionally stiffeners may be usedStiffeners are of T profile, internal, with flange on smaller diameterThere are no significant hull openings (stress at discontinuities not calculated)White columns are for data entry, green are calculated resultsEach row is for a separate design, so they may be comparedTo start a new design, copy a previous row to get a new instance of all the formulasSTEPS:1) Complete all white columns in the shell definition, frame definition and material definition sheetsIn the frame definition sheet, by "bulkhead" I do not mean necessarily a wall in your sub - I just meanone or more rings that are much heavier than the rest.2) Do not enter any data in the auxiliary functions sheet, it is purely a placeholder for spreadsheet formulas3) Check the failure depth for each of the 3 failure modes on the "predicted failure" sheet.The "predicted failure" column highlights the failure mode that will occur at the least depth.4) Check the "weight & volume" sheet to see if your design is within the boundaries you need.5) Vary the configuration attempting to balance the three failure modes. In a balanced design, none ofthe three modes should occur much earlier than the other two.
