<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter hull 1600 mm (given) </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter front porthole outside 614 mm</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter front porthole inside 436 mm </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">But given with the outer window diamter given by Jon of just 530 I come to </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter hull 1381mm</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter front porthole outside 530 mm (given)</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">Diameter front porthole inside 376 mm </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">If I do with the 530 / 376 a little reverse enginering on a conical seat of 60°</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">I come to a thickness of just 120 mm for a inside and outside flat conical frustrum window. </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">According to PVHO-1-1987 t /Di = 0,348 with t = 0,348 x 376 mm = 162 mm at 40 Mpa (4000m)</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">(for Short term critical presssure) </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">But from Jon's picture it seems more a Sperical Sector Window with Conical Edge. and flat inside. </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">The code has no figures for such a window. </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">But if I use for Sherical Shell windows t/di shall 0,195 means t = 0,195 x 376 = 73 mm</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">To be diplomatic I just mix up the flat with the sperhical and got (162 + 73) / 2 = 117,5 mm </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">(for Short term critical presssure) </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">The code says if you have not a standard geometrie - you have to test 5 windows to destroy dephs </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px;">and use the lowest failture pressure for your calculation. </p>

<div dir="ltr">Hello Carsten,
<div> </div>
<div>for the thickness, I read that the viewport should have been rated for 1300meters depth, so I think that the designer designed for a short term critical pressure of 5200m/52MPa, and perhaps thought it would be fine using a 1.3X margin to get to 4000m rather than the 4X margin we can find in Stachiw book and PVHO rules for low temperatures (to be checked but I believe it is 4x). </div>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">I come to the following rough figures: </span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">(these diameters indicate that the porthole could be original designed as entrance..)</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">Now idear about the thickness of the acrylic </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">- but will check out PHSME about standard flange angles tonight. </span></p>
