Hello I'm a mechanical engineer that need some help, I want to know what best practices, codes/standards are employed in the USA for the design of belt conveyor strucures, what literature should I get to engage the structural design of this kind of machinery?
Cordial Greetings

attached is an image of a part of a drawing I'm taking as an example,this drawing include a set of ecuations to obtain the thickness and pressure of the body of the boiler, I want to do the same but I need to understand where those ecuations are coming
Good morning
I found a drawing of a steam boiler (506,160 KCal/hr) (fire tubes) and I'm interested in check the max pressure and/or design pressure this steam boiler can work with, also I would like to check the size of the relieve valve, can you recommend me some literature/code where I can...
Good morning
I'm looking for advice:
I'm a mechanical engineer, now I want to increase my knowledge in the subject of structures, specifically steel structures for industrial purposes (chemical, bulk handling material, etc.) buildings, racks, warehouses, operation platforms, support structures...
Hello Berkshire
I already made some calculation for the tensions, here the site i found: http://www.thecementgrindingoffice.com/belt5.html , is basically the same info of your link (now i know where comes the k factor i have seen some many times in belt conveyor formulas/tables).
Now i just...
Hello
Can you help me with the design consideration/methods for the especification of a crossed round belt power transmission? i need to invert the rotation of a belt conveyor located on top of another belt conveyor, this is for an equipment like the one in this video...
Hello Berkshire
1.- I guess the belts are fanning out, i've seen some videos where they put containment boxes under the belt to catch the different sizes falling from the inferior trays.
2.- Taking a closer look to the formulas they can be applied for flat belt too, in resume:
a)obtain the...
Hello
Im designing a belt conveyor/classificator for fruits/vegetables, you can see a video of this kind of conveyors in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAKtQbKkijM
as you can see the conveying surface is provided by several round section belts, i already made a power calculation for: empty...
Hello, i like to know how to make a cfd study of a round duct, i want to know the required static pressure that i need to apply (or pull) in one end of the duct to get an specific fluid velocity (or flow) through this duct, the fluid is air at std conditions, how can i develop this studio? which...
Hi I'm working on a industrial exhaust ventilation system, the system consists of 4 branches that meet at a single point at the entrance of a dust collector, the operation of each one of these branchs can be combined at the end we can get 6 stages of work, after the dust collector we have a...
Hello, i am involved in the design of a gearbox, for this project i started a spreadsheet and i have a first gearbox configuration, for this i used agma tables from my design textbook for J and I coefficients and now i like to check this by using agma 908-B89 procedure,i already have completed...
