Good idea, I will have a look into that but might pose a few issues as that hole has a couple of other functions. Interesting that you have seen a similar design. It definitely was not me who post previously. haha different type of gun but I had better not say too much.
Just before i put this...
LittleInch, btrueblood thanks for the replay. Sorry that was some poor equation writing its not 1" but meant to read (sealing diameter 1) as in the oring to the first Oring to the left in the picture. At around 500PSI it doesn't take much area to get a significant force and yes it is around 5%...
Thanks for the input.
I will try my best to answer the questions.
"Also, calculate the force margin of the two valves, i.e. what is the closing force acting per linear inch of seal length per unit of inlet-outlet pressure differential. LI, if you look, the seal line (line of contact btwn seal...
Hi Guys,
I am working with a prototype in which we designed a valve seating against an Oring. Please see below
To seat the valve there is a spring force and a pressure force as indicated by the arrows. The valve works well for our pressure range 0-600 Psi. The problem is when a colleague...
Having issues with the attaching two file, but here is the original version that works well with pressure compartments indicated http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e59cc4bd-bffb-451a-8ce1-fe1ea60bfffb&file=Valve_1_working_well.png
