    Axisymmetric model with both axisymm and not axisymm loads

    Hi. Is there anyone who can tell me how to load a plane 25 model with axisymmetrical load (mode 0) and with non axisymmetrical load (mode 1 isim 1)? How can i combinate these two loads with the result of a thermal analysis (made with PLANE55)? Thanks a lot.

    Skirt buckling

    Hello all. I've to verify a separator skirt during erection. I think I've to verify the compressed side for buckling failure. Can you help me to find in ASME code the limit stress value for cylinder under axial compression? Thanks a lot.

    Coupling thermal analisys with another thermal analisys.

    Hello, I'm working with ANSYS. I want to make a thermal analisys, and then i want to apply thermal result as displacement in a new thermal analisys in witch I will erase some elements (node and ele number will remain the same). Can i do it? I have to use ldread or physics,read? Thanks all

    Linear temperature distribution

    Excuse me. I forgot to tell you that I'm working with ANSYS. Can you help me? Thanks

    Linear temperature distribution

    Hello all. I know temperature in a pipe at both ends of the tube and i would like to apply a linear distribution of temperature along the line (I will make a thermal-structural coupled analisys). Can someone help me? I can do it node by node with a little pdl program, but i can't understand if...

    Tube modelling in a fixed tube heat exchanger

    Thanks a lot BVI. My last questions I've to study the tube's thickness. So I would take the highest stress value and with TEMA rules (proximity to baffles) and control instability. But how can i consider the stress distribution in a solid? And about termal distribution in the solid? Will it be...

    Tube modelling in a fixed tube heat exchanger

    Thanks a lot jte I'm not an old and expert ASME user and i can have access only to 2002 and 2004 (only div VIII and IX). Can you explain me where I can find them. I've to buy it, or can I find it in the standard code? Thanks a lot again.

    Tube modelling in a fixed tube heat exchanger

    Hello all. Is there anyone who can tell me how to model tubes in a FEM 2D axisymm analisys? I have modeled tubesheet and calculated equivalent young's modulus and Poisson'ratio. Now I've to introduce tubes in a axisymm way or not? And how? Thanks a lot.
