I am designing a hydraulic system that needs to operate as low as -10 C with ISO22 oil. I am trying to estimate pressure drops through valves at this lower temperature.
The datasheets typically show pressure drop vs flow through the valve using an oil with a viscosity of 22-46 cSt. I am...
See the attachment for loading scenario. The drawing is a simple beam with fixed supports via 2 bolts at each end. Am I correct in distributing the load, F, to each of the 4 bolts as a vertical reaction force of F/4? Is there an additional shear force caused by the moment about the center of the...
I am trying to design a bolted flange connection for an oddly shaped piece. There are 4 flanges that connect the piece to the ground, with the flanges being welded to the ground. Each flange has 2 bolts. What I have done is taken the load, divided it by the number of fasteners and applied the...
I am trying to calculate the volume flow rate out of a pressurized vessel. The pressure in the tank is being held constant at 120 psi by a compressor and contains air. There is a 1 inch outlet on it. I have calculated the mass flow rate by assuming choked flow and using:
Q = C A sqrt (g k rho P...
