In the design/analysis of a double-pipe heat exchanger, is it correct to use the "heated perimeter" for the annular flow, or should the "wetted perimter" be used?
For example, I have ethylene-glycol flowing in the annular space, with water flow in the inner pipe. I am...

Anyone have information on engineering certification and Mexico? My brother passed the FE exam and worked for a year in the states before moving to Mexico. He wants to get licensed (mainly for future use), but not sure if it is possible. And if so, who should he contact and what hoops need to...
I do not have access to the BPVC itself, but I do have a summary in an engineering text which describes the criteria for required thickness of a nozzle neck as the largest of:
(1) the thickness computed from the loadings (internal pressurization, reactions, etc.) plus an allowance for corrosion...
Can anyone recommend a free or low-cost source which describes details of the ASME code for pressure vessel design? I would prefer something available on the internet.
I don't currently work in this field, but I still consider myself a student, and would like to learn more. Since the actual...
