Good day, Is there any way to export the reaction loads of a random vibe analysis to a static analysis? We currently have the task to asses if the bolts we selected for a bolted vibe fixture test will withstand the loads during a random vibe analysis. We are using ANSYS workbench, we already...

Thanks for the reply pmover, The Pressure ranges will be from 0-350 psig. Temperatures from -20F to 1500F. Regards, P.P.

Good day, I am currently looking to take a course into ASME piping design. In your experience, what piping design course do you recommend me to take? I will be working with pipe lines transporting dry air at hot temperatures, so I am interested in learning: -Considerations for supports. (fix...

Thanks for the reply LittleInch, This is for an engine exhaust testing. Talking to a peer, he mentioned that a rule of thumb up is to not exceed 0.3 Mach. I checked the Mach number for this application and we will be around .2. Most braided flex hose providers mention that above 150 ft/s is...

Thanks GregLocock, Regarding the reference info, is that they know the same type of flex hoses have work with air flow at 280 ft/s. Regards, P.P.

Good day, I was recently working with a 6in flex hose component (as shown in the link), it will work with compressed air at 650F, 80psig and a flow of 380 ft/s. https://www.metraflex.com/product_cat/flexible-metal-hose/ I read that when the air flows over 150 ft/s, they place an inner liner...

Thanks MJCronin, Yes, I would like to perform a stress analysis to compare it against the code allowable. The thing here is that my company only counts with ANSYS, I was trying to find a way to perform it in there. Regards, P.

Good day, Do you know if "ASME pipe check V1" app works with ANSYS 2020 R1? I have tried to use it but it keeps plotting zero of stress. Regards, P.P.

Good day, I would like to learn how to use ASME B31.1 to validate a pipe line. Regularly, what I have done is perform a simple FEA analysis on ANSYS with pipe elements (beam) and compare the ¨maximum combined stress¨ obtained from the ANSYS stress results and compare it against the allowable...

Good day, I just started researching about how to validate a pipe line using ASME B31.1. But I have a couple of questions regarding how to compare those stresses with the allowable stress. I see that there are 3 types of stresses: Sustained, displacement and occasional, I am trying to use FEA...

Thanks for the responses, XL83NL, what do you mean with (a.o.)?? Regards, P.P.

Good day, I was interested on taking a course with ASME to learn how to design and validate a pipe line. But I wonder which ASME standard applies for the application of piping that I will design. I will validate stainless steel pipe lines that conduct air at pressures around 300psig and...

Good day, I am currently developing a pressure drop analysis in a pipe, I need to simulate the effect of a perforated plate inside the pipe. I know the opening area of this perforated plate. I am familiar modeling orifice plate and perform a quick steady analysis. But this time, modeling the...

Thanks for the response! Is there any reference sources you can share? I would like to learn more about it. We are basically going to analyze a rectangular flat wall. I was researching about the ansys tools, and I found that an explicit analysis suits better for forces acting in less of 1...
