    Vibration Limits ISO 10816 for Motor and Pump

    Hello, I have a query regarding how to identify vibration limits for an equipment with multiple components. For example, a pump that is drive by motor. For motor ISO 10816-3 identifies the vibration limits for electric driven in class 1 & 2 whereas class 3 & 4 are for pumps. So while defining...

    Damage mechanism for CI Piping used in NH3 and CO2 Service

    Hello everyone, We are using CI piping for fluid service containing NH3,CO2,H20 and H2S. The fluid composition is as follows: NH3 = 0.402 kg/m3 CO2 = 0.255 kg/m3 H2O = 0.128 kg/m3 H2S = 0.0003 kg/m3 Temperature = 60-80Celcius Pressure (psi) 14.7 The CI piping is suffering from thickness loss...

    Reaction loads at the Support of an overlapping structure

    Hi, I wanted some clarification for how would the reaction loads at end supports and joint will be calculated in the case shown in the schematic diagram. The load of right structure would be supported by roller A however that load would also be transmitted to roller B. In this for value we can...
