Hi forum.

 

I just had a craaaazy idea. This just jumped into my head and I wonder if anyone has ever tried it or any research done on it.

 

Suspose you had a pressure hull with horseshoe shaped tubes penetrating the hull all over its entire surface. Then suspose the water

 

entered into the open ended OUTSIDE of those tubes and the tubes were welded where they penetrated the hull and also against the inside of the hull facing outward so the outside

 

water pressure enters the open end and is now pushing OUTWARD against the inside of your hull. Would this work to counteract some of the inward pressure on

 

the hull?  I was thinking of a way to use water pressure to counteract itself by taking its inward pushing pressure and curving back outward against the inside of your pressure hull by use of horseshoe shaped tubes.

 

Or am I missing something basic again about pressure?

 

Kindest Regards,

 

Bill Akins.
