Mar 16, 2010 #3 jamesl Mechanical Oct 16, 2002 247 0 0 US Yes, it is from Appendix 1-4 for torispherical heads, excpet in the formula for M, "R" should be revised to "L", same "L" as used to calculate tmin. L is inside crown radius, r is inside knuckle radius. M is a factor depending on L/r. Upvote 0 Downvote
