Hi All,
I have been finding difficulty in standardising formulas.Basically for stress and strain, burst, collapse etc relating to mechanical components used in oilfield. Is there a book as such that gives a standard formula for calculating these values. I am simultaneously looking at...
we have tried back up rings too.
It is not a flange. I have used metal rings in flanges and it works perfectly fine.
This one is for a manifold block in a bop which has a dim of 9 x 4 x 2 (all dim in inches) approx. and is placed on a body which is massive and hence the groove cannot be...
The seal is static.
Yes you are right i am not getting a metal to metal seal. But since two metal blocks with a holes are to be connected with bolts, there can be liquid/gas leaks and hence this seal.
Pressure : 22500 psi
Temperature : 171 C
Speed : static
Fluids : hydrocarbon say .8 density...
Hi All,
I am a design engineer who is trying to overcome a sealing problem. We have been using orings for metal to metal seals and found it to be causing all sorts of problem. The seal itself is not good. Hence i was on the lookout for new type of metal to metal seals. the seal is for the...
I am designing a wirelocking(size of wire .125") system using the principle of seat belt locking mechanism in cars. The wire is run in to the pipe at a constant rate when it shears, the wire is lost. Hence the design. I was unable to find a reference of the seat belt mechanism in the net. Which...
