I'm attempting to use ansys workbench 11, to model a series of vessels mounted on a steel base frame.
The soldiers model imports fine and has a series of static loads and moments applied to it.
However I also need to allow for wind loading, I have a wind speed I've converted to a wind...
Hi
I have a client whom is concerned about Raised face flange deformation, due to over tightening of bolts. So is keen to define bolting torques to ensure this is avoided.
The application is 300lb RF with fibre gaskets, defining the torque for the required gasket is not a problem. But i'd...

I have a application using a 4000kW API condenser with system D full re-circulation, its for a partially cold part of the world -50degC.
has any body any experience of louver freezing / ice formation? On both Linkages and louvers?
If so any suggestions of how to avoid, how affective are...

I'm designing a vertical vessel, 70" oil separator, with knitted wire mist eliminator. For separating oil mist from a gas stream.
We have plenty of experience in designing horizontal vessels with these mesh pads , but less so in vertical vessels
The Vessel diameter is sized based on the...

I have a tank of lubricating oil that i wish to pre heat before it can be used to lubricate a compressor.
i wish to pre-heat to 40degC from a min of 0degC, within a 12hr period. I have accounted for losses through the walls of the vessel and also had a rough estimate from the surface of...

A very simple one, i'm pretty new to mathcad and am having trouble with the logic below.
I have been attempting to write a function to look through an existing vector / array (L) testing whether the values within it are between two limit conditions (RAL & RBL).
If the valves...
I would like to be able to size an array (vector) by means of a variable.
Essentially i have input data that i input into a number of vectors, the number of data points, ie rows changes each time, however i can't afford to have blank / zeros due to subsequent calculations.
I'd like to be able...

can someone give me a hint or two on the following please. I'm trying to work through some else"s calculations
i have a simple frame two vertical members, bridged at the top by a single Horizontal member.
Vertical height = h
Horizontal length = between vertical members = L
I1 = second...
Hi, I’m trying to assess the anchor bolt loads for a jib crane that we’re proposing to relocate. Structural calcs are not my field.
I can easily replicate the bolting currently in place to ensure safety, however for my own satisfaction I wanted to calculate the bolt loadings for the anchor...
Wondered if i could recieve some advice,
I'm attempting to re-start coding welding within the company i work for, based i the UK.
We have lost the knoweldge regarding weld inspection.
Our welders have completed the required coding for the welds they are performing.
However we are producing...
I wondered if soemone could provide a spot of guidance.
I'm looking to develop my career in the direction of pressure vessel design. The company (UK) i currently work for has a need for vessels which are currently out-sourced, whilst i also see the skill as an internationally transferable...

I have a closed pipe system in which i have two separate pipe loops each with their own pump. Loop1, Loop2
The two loops interact by two branches which feed from Loop 1 into Loop 2 and vice versa. The flow required through branch 1 = flow through branch 2. I have attached a...
I am designing a plant in which i have two pumps collecting water from a tank and then cirulating it through two condensers to recieve heat before passing through a heat exchnager connected indirecrtly to a coolign tower before returning the water to the same tank.
The pump flows are both...
I current run SE on a Xeon 5150 pocessor, 2Gb mem, and quatro 3450 graphics cards, with 250Gb 750rpm hard drives.
My understadning of the xeon 5150 processor is that in fact it is a dual porcessor unit, thus there are physically two processors on the mother board. This is in contrast to dual...
I am attempting to bring in some drawing control typically we have 200-300 componets per design and then 3/4 variations within a level 1 of change and then 20-30 (componets) changes within level 2 vaiations, which effect all of the level 1 machines, typically 20-30 changes.
We then build 6-7...
I have a created a family of parts within on part, i would then like to populate these parts to create a series of different parts that stand independantly.
However all of these parts need to have drafts asociated with them, which all have the same format of dimensions etc in the draft...
i need to draw a part which is essentially 6 threads running along the axis of a large cylinder. I have the equations for the threads and the wrap angle(how far it goes round the cyliinder) could someone please help me. Simple help would be great.
Hi
i posted a message (shown below) in refrigeration and chemical engineering forums. However it has been suggested that this forum would perhaps be able to help me better in estimating droplet size.
I am trying to design a cyclone device to separate oil an refrigerant, ie a liquid and vapor...
