A general procedure is presented whereby all the internal stresses in a glass cylinder can be calculated from birefringence observations. The method applies to circular cylinders, either rods or tubes, where the stress distribution may be any arbitrary function of the radial coordinate and where the observation path is far enough from the ends of the cylinder so that end effects are negligible. The method is applied to an oil‐tempered solid glass rod and the calculated stress is compared with that expected from a constant cooling rate.
