We want to cool liquid paraffin wax from about 155F to about 125F. It will have a viscosity of around 15 cst.
We will be using a heat exchanger with a fan. I can't find any information on the heat transfer properties of wax so I can size the cooler. Normally, my calculations are for water or...
Someone has suggested that the length of thread shown in Sect.VIII Div 1, UG34(q), must be as long as the calculated thickness of the end cap. This is based upon the sketch (q). My argument is that sketch (n) shows a retaining ring with a thread length less than the thickness of the end cap...
Does anyone know of a particle counter that can be used to measure contamination in Water Glycol and perhaps print out an ISO contamination code (4/6/14)?

In calculating the required wall thickness of a straight pipe I use the formula in section 304.1.2. This is quite straight forward.
My problem is in understanding section 304.2.1.
Can anyone explain to me what I am calculating when I use the formula 3c? It is supposed to be the minimum wall...
Could someone please help me interpret UG34 of the ASME code Section VII Div. 1
In UG34 sketch "q". the factor C=0.75 is given for threaded end caps up to 12" in diameter. If we want to use this style of end cap, but in 14" diameter, is there any part of the code that allows...
I have come across a German grade for high temperature bolts, "460TS". I believe it came out of an ABB steam turbine unit.<br>
Is their a Canadian/American equivalent for this material? Where can I find a standard that covers this?
