Thanks Comcokid. I'll look into that.
IRstuff, Yes you are correct, however the I suspect that the noise from the power supply and other areas will have an effect. However i may try it and see what i get.
Thanks all.
Hi,
This is going to be used in a permanent die Al casting. one set of probes will be cast into each casting to measure the fill rate. This is for a trial to characterize die filling. The probes are disposable and the fill time is short so the erosion of the probes should not be a problem. I...
VE1BLL,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I am restricted by my data acquisition equipment to measuring either a 0-10 vDC or a mili volt (thermocouple module) signal. I'm unable to measure resistance or current directly.
Hi,
I am trying to make a liquid metal level sensor for our lab. There as the liquid metal is 700C most liquid metal sensors will not work. Due to the nature of the installation remote level sensors such as laser, ultrasound etc are not suitable either.
I would like to use some high resistance...
DBezaire thank you for the help. I've just tried to do this but run into some problems.
I have joined all of the surfaces and the boundary command states that it has no boundary., the problem is that the close surface command states that it is impossible. I have tried to analyse the surface...
Hi,
I have been sent a step file and want to use the inverse of its complex surface form in my catia model in order to design some tooling. To do this I would like to be able to use the Boolean remove function. I can do this to remove a part from a second part, but when the part to be removed is...
Hi,
Can anyone help me get the abaqus subrutine to read in variables from a .txt file?
I am trying to get the Abaqus subroutine "main.f" to read variables from a text file. If i state the variables in the directly in the subroutine it runs, if i try to get it to read them from a .txt file it...
I managed to export the mesh using the export toolbar,which was hidden from view. This allows you to export the node co-ordinates and numbers as a .dat file.
I also want to export the noodes on defined surfaces so i am looking into other ways to do this. We have a sophisticated Abuqus model and...
Hi,
I want to mesh my parts in CATIA V5 R20 and export them for use in other CFD software. Currently I can only save the meshed files as .CATAnalysis files. I have found forum posts suggesting that it is possible to export the meshs as .dat or .bdf files, but am unable to do this. Has this...
Hi,
I am using CATIA V5 R20. I have a die assembly which is fully constrained. I want to create a model of the cavity. I have a seperate part (cavity volume) which overlaps the die structure and I am using the remove feature to generate the internal cavity geometry.
Working at the...
Hi,
I have been given 20 CATIA part files. I have created a CATIA product with them all correctly aligned using the constraints feature. It is a casting die, so it is important that the surfaces of each part qare correctly aligned with one another.
I would like to export each part as an .STL...
