Does anyone know where to get data on 304SS fatigue limit? The number of load cycles the material can take at a certain stress? My college text book Mechanics of Materials by E.P. Popov has a graph for 18-8 which is a generic term for 304 but does not say if the specimens were annealed or...
I am looking for a manufacturer of large cross flow fans. Also sometimes called tangential fans. The application can fit up to a 44" long fan wheel. The wheel diameter will probably need to be from 10 to 20 inches in Dia., package can accomodate a range. I would like 45hp at 1800RPM at...
How do you do a simple approximation of the back pressure vs flow characteristics for a certain dia hole for an incompressable fluid? I need to get 1 gallon of water per min thru a series of holes (a sprinkler head basicly). I have the number of holes, how do I calculate the proper dia. I...
I would like to talk to someone with indepth belt drive design experience. I am working on a 50hp 3600RPM drive design using Gates GT2 Polychain cog belt for a OEM application. One of the problems of the design that conserns me is alignment. Have you ever had to realign a machine after...
