Download ISP OpticsDESIGN OF PRESSURE WINDOWDESIGN OF PRESSURE WINDOW*Minimum thickness of a window required to withstand a pressure differential can be calculated by the following formula: Th = thickness, inches R = unsupported radius, inches P = pressure differential, psi MR = modulus of rupture, psi SF = safety factor (We use SF=4 in our calculations) Modulus of rupture (MR, psi) of commonly used crystals:
