    Adams tyre testing trailer model

    I'm also constantly getting a warning when I'm tying to run the simulation from static equilibrium of: "Right road edge passed" and I have tried to rotate the road 180 degrees, then I get another warning of: "Edge of road reached". It looks like it simulates fine with no errors but has this...

    Adams tyre testing trailer model

    The body is a small trailer that consists of a larger main frame to which the tow hitch and the left wheel assembly is attached. Then there is a smaller sub-frame to which the right wheel is attached and the the whole sub-frame is connected to the main frame using the load cells. These load...

    Adams tyre testing trailer model

    Hi all, I'm simulating a tyre testing trailer in Adams/view to determine the change in the normal force acting on three vertical load cells attached to the trailer. I have a problem where the simulation runs, but after a while one of the joints that act as the load cell locks up? Any ideas on...

    Adams/view model error

    Thanx Greg seems like I might have found the problem.

    Adams/view model error

    Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help me I constantly receive this error when I want to simulate my model in Adams/view. Does anybody know what the cause of this may be? Thanx in advance. Static equilibrium analysis has not been successful. The maximum number of iterations 25, has not...

    Water circulation system with incorporated heat exchanger

    Its common municipal water and the water is used for other equipment. The heat exchanger is used to cool or heat this water to room temp to be re-used again. I am not sure about the temperature of the water will have to find that out and it will probably be a open loop the water comes from an...

    Water circulation system with incorporated heat exchanger

    Hi all, Im looking to design a circulation system. Water through the system must however remain at room temperature as close as possible. For this I want to incorporate a heat exchanger that interacts with a computer program so that the whole system runs autonomously; the heat exchanger pump...

    Flow Rate Through a Manifold

    That is good news thank you for the help.

    Flow Rate Through a Manifold

    Hi I want to select a pump for a quenching tank that has an intake manifold with 12 smaller pipe inlets to the tank. The flow rate required at the discharge is 170 m3/h, two pumps are being used with one in standby. Is it possible to calculate the flow rate for each small pipe on its own or is...

    Size of driving gear

    Thank you for the replies appreciate the help...the gear ratio was a typing mistake sorry for that it should be 90.89

    Size of driving gear

    Hi, Im designing a cart to transport heavy materials and the motor I want to use has a speed of 1440rpm with a gearbox ratio of 90:89:1 the driven gear connected to the wheel has 34 teeth and must have a speed of 60rpm, module of 4.2. How can I get the speed at which the pinion gear will run to...

    Reduced flow rate of existing pumping system

    Thanx for all the posts really appreciate the help, I think a flow meter will still work though, there is an overflow pipe so will it work if you measure the instantaneous flow rate being used as well as the rate of the overflow, and the difference there will give you your flow rate needed?

    Reduced flow rate of existing pumping system

    Thanks for the post BigInch...that is a helpfull hint, is there maybe another way to determine the flow, because this is the only tank that supplies a section of a plant, and allowing it to run dry to check how long it takes will cause the plant to have no water for a while?

    Reduced flow rate of existing pumping system

    I know what the pipe's diameters are and length, and also the size of the tank, there are existing valves in the piping system that can maybe used to reduce the flow? How will I however be able to determine physically what that flow rate will be?

    Reduced flow rate of existing pumping system

    How is it possible to determine a reduced flow rate for the purchasing of a new pump, as the old pumps do not have to supply the flow rate that they were designed for anymore, thus just wasting energy and water?
