Hi all,
I am creating a tubular frame chassis using solidworks and have created the members in the form of "weldments", I have curved members which I want to straigthen out in order to aquire the straight length.In addition to this, I have notching throughout on each end of the members.
I have...
Hi all,
Im currently woring on an improved heat exchanger which essentially is a block of t6 aluminium with an array of vertical Quartz tubes passing through (Block essentially has clearance holes which tubing pass through). fluid enters a fluid manifold at the bottom, travels upward and exits...
I am currently in the process of redesigning a butterfly valve system. I need to reduce the thickness of a journal type bearing sleeve from 3mm to 2mm.
Is there a rule of thumb/standard I need to adhere toward, Or is there a calculation I can use?
Thank you in advance,
Ryan
Hi all,
I am looking into designing Cryogenic extension shafts. Is there a standard calculation to determine the thermal load due to Conduction and convection (Not interested in Radiation).
Thank you
Thank you pmover, I will have a chat with my guys and see if i can organise some testing. Its all good carrying out these calculations to determine values however without testing, it is pointless.
What calculation do most people use to determine rough figures for the closing Torque on triple offset butterfly valves?
From what I have found There are primarily three areas to consider:
1) Disc sealing Torque due to friction,
2) Bearing Torque due to friction ,
3) Hydro static Torque.
I...
Hi everyone,
I hope someone can give me some guidance, I am currently analysing a large range of valves including various pressure classes.
I have conducted an extensive (to say the least) FEA analysis, I have considered three individual studies:
Load Case 1: Vessel pressure acting on...
