    Display Configurations

    Hello, I am working with big assemblies. I have created a few configurations showing different parts of the machine I am working with. However, when I turn on 2 or more configurations, sometimes it works properly and sometimes it doesn't and it shows some other parts as well. Any suggestions...

    Corrosion meter

    Almost all the cooling circuit is made of stainless steel, plus the components that are made of copper. Only a few meters are connected to a PVC pipe. The principle of the corrator is through oxidation of the probes, so it shouldn't make a difference whether the meter is installed in a PVC pipe...

    Corrosion meter

    Conditions are: pH is about 6.8. Conductivity is about 2mSiemens/cm, level of oxygen is about 4ppm. The velocity of the fluid where the probes are installed is about 0.2m/s. The fluid is water and the pipe where the meter is installed is PVC. But all the circuit is made of PVC, stainless steel...

    Corrosion meter

    Hi Cloa Thank you for your answer. Yes, it is a Linear Polarization Resistance measurement. But still I don’t know why the resistance value can differ depending on the settings. For instance, if you take a look at the manual (first link you attached), on page 16, on the “PROBE RATE 4-20 LOOP...

    Corrosion meter

    Hi I have a corrosion meter, a 9030 Plus corrater instrument that measures the corrosion of a copper probe in mils per year. This corrosion meter is connected to a Web Master Water Controller, that reads the 4-20mA signal. So there are two displays, one for the corrater on the other one for the...

    Copper corrosion meter

    Thank you Compositepro and cloa You are right that replacing the probe is not a calibration procedure, but I guess that installing new probes is a way to check that the corrosion rate goes down to near a zero value and that the meter is working fine. I don’t know any other way to do it. And...

    Thermal conductance

    Hello everyone I will answer to myself, in case someone is interested. First of all, the increase of temperature should be done only in the contact and target surfaces, not in the main body (we can obtain these values in Solution, Insert, Probe, Temperature). So in my case, the raising of...

    Thermal conductance

    Hello everyone I have two surfaces in contact with some heat going through them. I am using bonded contact. But the contact between both surfaces will not be perfect, so I would like to consider a 50% of the thermal conductance between them. Is there any way I can do that? In contact...

    Average power on a surface

    Hi Flash3780. Thank you very much for your answer! I am quite a new user in Ansys and don't know much about APDL. I have been using APDL in Mechanical in a "Command", to put power to a surface or to get the displacements from other surface. But that code was written by someone else at work. I...

    Ansys Working File

    Hi, I am quite new with Ansys as well, but I think the best way is that the previous user archives the project. In Workbench: file, archive. A *.wbpz file is created, that is the one you have to open (Again in Workbench: File, restore archive)

    Average power on a surface

    Hello This might look a silly question, but I don't know the answer. I am using Workbench 14.0, steady state thermal analysis. In my model, I have some power in one surface and I would like to know which is that power. As a solution I have the total heat flux, but the units are W/m2 and I am...

    MODAL ANALYSIS

    Hello, Thank you for your answer. What I am looking for is the following: To measure the vibration of a component with an accelerometer, then to take the data obtained, implement it in I-deas and calculate the modes of vibration (Fouriers Transform) I know I can model the 3D and from there to...

    MODAL ANALYSIS

    Hello karhick11 Thank you for your answer. Do you have an idea of how I should proceed? Thank you

    MODAL ANALYSIS

    Hello Do you know if it's possible to do a modal analysis in I-deas? (about frequencies and vibrations) Best regards
