Hi I want to know till what extent ASME code covers the design of pressure vessels. From extent i mean in which cases we have to use FEA (Finite Element Analysis)in designing Pr. Vessel.

Hi I want to know can we use Gelato (A renderer driver from Nvidia) with inventor? http://www.nvidia.com/page/gz_home.html

Not done 3G switch yet. But is it safe to apply ! i mean is any instability of system can occur ?

i had the same problem, proe Wf4 crashes when we select the part or assembly and select the template and when the part or assembly environment starts, proe shuts down. Advice plz! No intelli-mouse etc here.

Hi I have 4GB of RAM in my computer but inventor(2008) only shows approx 1 - 1.5 GB in its memory meter, how can in increase tht capacity, bcoz i was working on a assembly with approx 2000+ occurrences and this cause memory meter to get full. Advice please.

Press F4 and rotate

Did u check ur geometry in solidworks for errors. Sometimes 3D modelers create the geometry with some approximations. This can also cause problems. ANSYS install connections to different softwares, is solidworks is in the list?

if u r patterning a closed sketch. u have to select every closed boundary when selecting profile for e.g. in extrude command. But anyway feature extrude is preferred.

Hi i want to know how can i use a self formulated element in ANSYS. i mean how to make a custom element to be used in ANSYS. And where could i find a procedure to formulate a element for Finite Element Analysis.

Hi first thing i am not a expert in CNC machining, but APT code generation is not very difficult in proe. u can find tutorials on it. for G-codes as i remember correctly, u have to have machine controller information (a file of proe). i hope this will put u in right direction.

i think directx is the best option if u want to use hardware accelerated graphics.

I tried both opengl and directx not witnessed any diffrence.

Check the graphics settings of Inventor (it is options tab), is it using Direct3D or Opengl to render your model..

Hi guyz Thanks for your replies. i think i mentioned boilers. my mistake ! . i was asking about steam generators.

Hi guyz I want to know what is the benefit of making boilers in packaged (sealed welded) form, and delivered it as a whole. and not like pressure vessels with flanged heads etc.

Revolve the shape of the cut u want around the axis of the cylinder. Thts what i understand from the better picture u posted.

U have to project the planes, axis or a point through project geometry.

Yes ANSYS interface is the best option, interface works by copying a file in ANSYS directory to the CAD software directory, read the ANSYS help on CAD interface.

Hi cbrn What are normated combinations !

Mapped mesh only need same number of nodes on the opposite sides, try it with more nodes near the tip. Post a picture of your crack geometry if u can.
