Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to align a die set for use in a hydraulic press and am having some difficulties achieving the necessary parallelism. Ideally we need the top and bottom platens of the die set to be parallel within 0.0005 inch. The die set is assembled in stacked parts so that...
You could try using the regular strength formulas but compensate the values with the % infill of the part. For example, if you had a diameter of 1" with a 75% infill you would take the diameter in the calcs to be 0.75". Might be a good start.
This is actually much more complex than it seems. The guiding formula to use in an energy balance Qin = Qout where Q is heat energy. It can be broken down as follows:
Qgeneated = Qconduction + Qradiation + Qconvection
The burning of your fuel is the input heat energy (Qgeneated), while the...
