I am sorry to have caused offense. This is certainly not homework. Instead it is an issue I have observed at work in an oil and gas application.
I simplified the model in a hope to get responses that would help me (and hopefully others) to better understand the fundamental principles and...
Hi there, OP here. Thank you all for your input, it has been enlightening seeing the varied replies and debate going on.

2. The hydraulic fluid is compressible but only slightly (density of ~1072...
Hi there,
I was hoping someone may be able to help with a query that has been dividing opinions of the people I ask to comment on it.
If I were to place a dual actuator valve filled with a compressible fluid into a compression chamber (or drop it to the bottom of the sea), with the open and...
I am currently on assignment in a shipyard, commissioning an oil and gas platform. I am responsible for the topside equipment which will provide electrical and hydraulic power to equipment which will be installed subsea.
I am concerned about SS 2507 and 6MO hydraulic tubing, rated at 15k psi...
Thank you all for the considered replies. Also thank you bringing MIL-HDBK-310 to my attention. This is a great resource.
By all accounts, it would seem to be safe to assume internal temperature to be 10C above the maximum wall temperature (55C determined from MIL-HDBK-310), resulting in some...
I have recently found this remarkable forum, and hope to seek some advice on a query that has come up at work.
I wish to deliver a metal container to a client, that will be sat out in the Australian sun. I have equipment inside the container (which we can assume generate little/no heat...
