Hello All. Hopefully this is the best place for this question. It did not seem applicable to other forums.
The question I have is I have a horizontal configured storage tank with capsule ends that is set on an angle for drainage. I need to know what the volume of this tank is at any height the...
My question is that I have a horizontal storage tank with one floating saddle on teflon pads. These tanks have a high cyclical load from thermal expansion so it will need to allow some flex in it. This will be in a pharmaceutical clean room with a lot of water and steam. What I need help with is...

I have an application where we use hot water and steam to sanitize storage tanks. Currently the tanks are vented inside of the room but I want to use some sort of steam trap at the vent to capture the steam. Venting to outside is possible but in the summers the ambient exterior temperature can...
I posted this in the wrong forum so I am going to put it on here.
I am trying to determine the amount of stress that is occurring to a plate that is being supported by three bearings. I am not sure if my results are coming out correctly or not. The intent is to have the bearings fixed and a...
I am new to working with the simulation program in Solidworks and hoping this is the right location to ask this question. I am trying to determine the amount of stress that is occurring to a plate that is being supported by three bearings. I am not sure if my results are coming out correctly or...
I need to design a "floating" base for a 42,000 litre, round, horizontal stainless steel water storage tank. Total weight will be 120,000 lb full and a tad under 20,000 lb empty. One saddle will be fixed but the other saddle will be "floating" to compensate for thermal expansion. Steam is used...
