    Pressure drop in a pipe

    hi, I am trying to evaluate pressure drop in an oil pipe. My problem is that I know that there is also air involved (~ 0.1%). The question is, how does the air influence the pressure drop? (notice i am talking about 0.1% air) I heard opinions both ways (pressure drop shall fall/rise) but no...

    looking for metal chracteristics

    hi, i am looking for the ultimate shear stress value, used for weldings, for the following metals: SAE4130 SAE4140 17-7PH also if you can provide the general charactersitics of SAE4140 it'd be helpful. thanks. guyguy

    Measuring air pressure @ high temperature

    hello, I am trying to measure static air pressure in a pipe @ 300 deg C and at max. of 150 psi. The air is flowing in the pipe. It seems quite difficult to find a sensor that survives these temperatures. I was told that if i will connect a short tube and take the measure few inches away from...

    preload tension in a UNJ bolts

    hi, i need to know how to calculate the preload tesion in a bolt connecting 2 plates. My problem is that one of the plates is subjucted to loads that would cause shear in the bolt. How do I translate it to preload? Is it simply by using the equation F=(miu)N? (miu = friction factor) (is it...

    calculation of polar inertia of a half circle crosssection

    sorry i am a bit rusty here. i need to know the J - polar inertia moment of a half circular body with thickness 't' around an axis that crosses at the half circle center (the circle's center. ta guy

    resonance

    hello, long time since i came by this subject. need your help. let's suppose i have a structure and i calculated the resonance modes of it and found that 1st mode resonance freq. is 70hz. now, the question is: are these frequencies: 35hz, 140hz, can cause the structure to get into resonance...

    welding - theory

    information regarding welding theory is needed. how to calculate forces/tourqes when using welding to attach to piece of metal such as Aluminium to Aluminium. how does one decide how much to weld (2mm , 3mm ....), should we weld on all sides of the profile or maybe it is enough to weld just...

    information about welding strength calculation needed asap

    i need information of how to calculate forces/tourqes when using welding to attach Aluminium to Aluminium. how does one decide how much to weld (2mm , 3mm ....), should we weld on all sides of the profile or maybe it is enough to weld just some of them etc... the information is needed asap and...
