The article approaches the analysis of stress and deformation states; in the toroidal shell with the elliptical cross section with two specific positions, relative to the axis of symmetry. The internal pressure of a working environment as well as the effect of its temperature are considered external loads. The two effects may overlap taking into account the elastic state of the shell material.
