    ASME Y14.41-2003 & Adobe PDF....

    Hello Forum, I don't enjoy the circular process of turning my 2D concept sketches into 3D CAD geometry, to only revert it back to a 2D engineering drawings...seems wasteful. I don't see the point in entering data twice (i.e. once in during 3D CAD and again in the 2D drawing). I don't like...

    High-Vacuum CFD Analysis Methodology

    I'm trying to determine the flow bottlenecks and vacuum process time of a laser tube, using CFD software. The final pressure of the laser tube will be 2.5x10-7 torr. A high-vacuum (2.5 X 10-7 torr) will be applied to a sealed laser tube, which starts at 1 atm, with an outlet diameter of 10 mm...
