Hello all, I have some doubts when I try to define my welding connection in Catia V5. Always you create a welding element between two elements, you've the possibility to select the type of the welding seam, this means: - Rigid - Contact - Hexaedron - Beam - Rigid-spring-Rigid -...

Thank you all, I will take a look in the book. @rconner: Sorry I can't give you more info but we are trying several setups so it's not yet well fixed. Cheers

Hello all, I am doing the calculation of a cooling system for a cryogenic magnet. I would like to ask where can I find different values for the minor losses. I have already found some values for standard angles as 45deg or 90deg as well as for normal tees and wyes (45deg). Is it possible to...

Thank you very much both!! I will check all the info. hank you again! Cheers

Hello all, I want to monitored (mass flow and pressure) a pipeline of 6mm inner diameter and 8 mm outer diameter. does anyone know a company which sells components for these sizes of pipes? Thank you very much

Thank you again! So definitely I will trust more in Ansys than in Catia. Thank you again!! Cheers

hello, Yes the values of Ansys are in the first post, maybe it's not so clear, otherwise all of you say that it's better to trust in Ansys so I will do this. Thank you very much Cheers

Sorry I thought I was atached it! Thank youhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=77b0583c-ac23-47c6-a284-875d56fab131&file=eng_tips.zip

Hello all, I have made a FEM analysis in Ansys a Catia V5. I have different results and I can't explain why, I attach a picture first of one error in Catia that I don't understand so well. The force applied had been 1000N. I attach also a picture in Catia with the system analyzed where it's...

Yes, the problem was that I was chosen a bad correlation to make the theoretically situation with my system. Now it seems so much accurate with the Raithby and Hollands correlation. Finally I think that i will use this one. Thank you Cheers.

Perfect!! thank you very much

@ione, please can you write the correlation or put the link where I can find it? I am trying to look for it and I can't. Thanks

@IRstuff, yes all the temperatures have been measured before, after I made the inverse way just to validate the value of the Heat transfer coefficient. @ione, thank you very much! I will check right now. Thank you both. Cheers.

@IRstuff I know everything about the coolant which is inside the pipe, so I have already calculate the inner heat transfer coefficient. The "problem" appeara when I calculate the heat transfer coefficient outside the pipe (air-pipe) because if I calculate the heat flow with a normal value of...

Thank you very much for your fast and helpful answer ione. The problem to calculate an accurate value of it is that the pipe it's not completely horizontal or vertical, also in some points it's touching some platforms...really difficult to be accurate. Thank you for the info again! Cheers
