Abstract: To consider the internal pressure loaded by both the cylindrical Ti-Al alloy liner and the carbon fiber resin composite (CFRC) wound layers, two models are built. The first one is a cylinder loaded with the internal pressure in the hoop direction only. In this model, the total hoop direction load is distributed over all layers under the internal pressure. The second one is a cylinder loaded with the internal pressure in the axial direction only. In this model, the total axial load is distributed over all cylinders under the internal pressure. Taking the boundary conditions of the continuous displacement between layers into account, a group of equations are built. From these equations, we get the solutions of stresses in both hoop direction and axial direction loaded by every layer under internal pressures. After the stresses are obtained, a reasonable design can be done. An example is given in the final section of this study.
