    Dimension Display

    What is the option in config.pro? I can't seem to locate it. Thanks.

    Dimension Display

    Steve, I'm not sure you can set limit dimensions to show as "stacked" if that's what you're asking. As far as I know they'll only show in a single line. This is acceptable per ASME Y14.5.

    calculate Factor B

    Try interpolation using the values in Table HA-3.

    Simple Unit Conversion

    W = 3.41214 BTU/hr m^2 = 10.76391 ft^2 W/m^2 = 0.316998 BTU/(hr∙ft^2) 1.9 µV/(W/m^2) = 5.994 µV/(BTU/(hr∙ft^2))

    Is it ok to say male and female parts?

    I’ll agree with Kenat on this one. It’s not really wrong, just outdated colloquial terminology. Similar to using the term 18-8 for 300 series stainless steels.

    Using period in part name

    Is there any way to use a period in a part name? E.g., XX-XXX-2.75.prt. We're using Creo 2.0.

    Nitriding screw threads

    Thanks CoryPad. BTW, I meant AMS, not ASM.

    Nitriding screw threads

    Is there an ASM (or other) specification for a suitable process for nitriding screw threads in annealed austenitic stainless steel?

    17-4 HH1150 to H900

    17-4PH in condition H1150 must be re-annealed first, 1900 ± 25°F [1040 ± 15°C) and cooled to below 90°F [32°C). Then precipitation hardened, 900°F (480°C) and air cooled to attain condition H900.

    Whether Sight Glass Should be Assembled with Vessel while performing Hydrotest ??...... Answer : NO

    We've done several Code vessels that included a sight glass. We've never hydro tested with the sight glass installed. The opening has always been plugged during the test. It's always been OK with our AI.

    material test certifcates

    EN 10204 does not state that the specification must be stated on the certificate, therefore it is not a requirement.

    SS vs SST

    See http://www.finishing.com/305/36.shtml Implications are that SST is more correct than SS, although I've seen and understand both.

    It is enough to check a material certificate according to NACEif you don't have it mentioned?

    As far as I know, as long as you verify that the material complies with MR01-75, there is no requirement that a reference to NACE be on the MTR.

    Aluminum nickel bronze

    Are Ampco 45 and CA18 the same?

    Torque... We've been wrong all these years!

    To stretch the topic a bit, the units are actually a product of force times distance (or distance times force if you like). Therefore they would more properly be displayed as a product, e.g., ft•lb or lb•ft rather than either ft-lb (feet minus pounds) or ft/lb (feet divided by pounds).

    CRN Search

    Oops. I meant Alberta.

    CRN Search

    CRN = Canadian Registration Number ACI = Registration agency for Prince Edward Island, et al. ABSA = Registration agency for Alberts

    CRN Search

    Is there a method to do a CRN search? ACI has a searchable database but not for other jurisditctions, e.g., ABSA.
