Can someone tell me how to calulate the size and number of bolts I need to secure a cylinder that is holding internal pressure. Simply a cylinder with an OD and ID and one end is open that needs to have a plate screwed on to the top to hold the pressure. This should be very easy calculation.
My MBA friend is starting a company where he needs the following done:
A small can (about 1/5 the size of a coke can) that will be a two piece assembly (just like a coke can). This can will hold a certain type of product which does not need internal pressure but this can must be sealed...
I am a mechanical engineer and want to design an automated Bartender. This is just for fun. I need to know how I can control fluid in a pipe. The pipe will be set up verically and be blocked off by a valve or something. Then I need to do a control of somesort to tell the valve to move at a rate...

In the industry that I work in they have always used shrouded impellers and I am now wondering why. Looking at the alternative and not using a shroud I see a a possibility of easy maching (CNC with great surface finishes), no efficiency loss from wear ring clearance, and less material so lower...
I would like to know if there is anyone out there with experience in high pressure cryogenic pumps (LNP,LPG etc.) I work in this field and am looking for people to discuss technical issues.
Thanks
Cryopumps
I am a cryogenic pump engineer. I recentley designed a pump in the 1250 specific speed pump at 3560 RPM (7960 FT at 1570 GPM, liquid is LNG). The diameter of the impeller that we used came out to about 13 inches and it was a 14 stage pump. My question is would it be usefull to speed up the motor...
