    Random vibe analysis bolt reaction (ANSYS workbench)

    Good day, Is there any way to export the reaction loads of a random vibe analysis to a static analysis? We currently have the task to asses if the bolts we selected for a bolted vibe fixture test will withstand the loads during a random vibe analysis. We are using ANSYS workbench, we already...

    ASME piping code

    Good day, I am currently looking to take a course into ASME piping design. In your experience, what piping design course do you recommend me to take? I will be working with pipe lines transporting dry air at hot temperatures, so I am interested in learning: -Considerations for supports. (fix...

    Braided flex hose maximum allowable air velocity

    Good day, I was recently working with a 6in flex hose component (as shown in the link), it will work with compressed air at 650F, 80psig and a flow of 380 ft/s. https://www.metraflex.com/product_cat/flexible-metal-hose/ I read that when the air flows over 150 ft/s, they place an inner liner...

    ASME pipe check V1

    Good day, Do you know if "ASME pipe check V1" app works with ANSYS 2020 R1? I have tried to use it but it keeps plotting zero of stress. Regards, P.P.

    ASME Pipe recommended courses

    Good day, I would like to learn how to use ASME B31.1 to validate a pipe line. Regularly, what I have done is perform a simple FEA analysis on ANSYS with pipe elements (beam) and compare the ¨maximum combined stress¨ obtained from the ANSYS stress results and compare it against the allowable...

    ASME B31.1 types of stresses

    Good day, I just started researching about how to validate a pipe line using ASME B31.1. But I have a couple of questions regarding how to compare those stresses with the allowable stress. I see that there are 3 types of stresses: Sustained, displacement and occasional, I am trying to use FEA...

    ASME code

    Good day, I was interested on taking a course with ASME to learn how to design and validate a pipe line. But I wonder which ASME standard applies for the application of piping that I will design. I will validate stainless steel pipe lines that conduct air at pressures around 300psig and...

    perforated plate modeling as porous domain ANSYS CFX

    Good day, I am currently developing a pressure drop analysis in a pipe, I need to simulate the effect of a perforated plate inside the pipe. I know the opening area of this perforated plate. I am familiar modeling orifice plate and perform a quick steady analysis. But this time, modeling the...

    Impulse load assessment

    Good day, I wonder how impulse loads are considered during a mechanical validation of a structure. In this case, we need to design a structure based on some impulse loads that we received from our peers. These loads are high from .0001 seconds to .01 seconds after this time they got to zero. I...

    ANSYS CFX multi domain modeling

    Good day, I am trying to model a bubble decompression inside a tank. This tank is half full with water and the other half is air. I have some questions regarding the set up of this problem. The intention of the bubble has an initial pressure of 50psig and then it drops to 0 psig at 0.1 seconds...

    Water tank reactions

    Good day, We have a pressurized volume under water inside a tank. This tank is half filled of water. We know the pressure level of the enclose volume. I wonder if there is any way to simulate the sudden decompression of this pressurized volume. My intention of this analysis is to obtain the...

    Hydrostatic test

    Good day, I have worked validating chambers in which they performed pneumatic test, in which a component is filled with air and pressurized. For this validation there are tools that calculate the required vent area in case a decompression occurs, I understand that this is due to the air is...

    Bolt torque definition

    Good day, Assuming a regular pipe circular cap flange, if we apply a torque to produce a certain preload per bolt, does the overall load that is being exerted on the flange equals to the sum of each bolt preload? or is it just the preload of one bolt? Thanks in advance, P.P.

    Promote body is not updating

    Good day, The promote body that I previously create is not updated after I modified the original part. The promote body is showing an exclamation mark and it says " Link status: Inactive (Source body consumed by boolean feature). Is there any way to fix this? or how can I find the problem...

    NX error (Unsuitable OM object)

    Good day, I am using NX10. I have the following issue when I try to open a part, it display the following error message "An operation was attempted on an invalid or unsuitable OM object". The only way to open it is load it as "structure only" with partial loading. After I activate all the...

    Static vs transient analysis in ANSYS

    Good day, I would like to know the differences between a static and transient analysis in mechanics. I did research and found that the transient analysis adds the inertial and damping effects, but I don't really understand what this means. I got this doubt, because we were analyzing the...

    Polycarbonate simulation properties

    Good day, I am trying to analyze a metal wall plate with a circular polycarbonate window attached to it. What properties do I need to specify to simulate the elasticity of the polycarbonate? I have never simulate the behavior of a polymer before. Thanks in advance! Pete

    Installation process

    Good day, I wonder if there is any tool on NX that help us to visualize how a part can be installed in the desired position considering the clearance of the surroundings components. An easy example, I want to place a sofa inside a room, is there any tool in NX that iterates to find the adequate...
