I have done a search and not found the answer - so if this is a repeat, please forgive me.
I would like an opinion on the following;
ASME codes - lets take ASME VIII DIV 2 as an example, but the question is more general for any ASME.
On the nameplate we put a line called DESIGN CODE: ASME...
I am new to NX and my reference is another CAD system and the CAST tutorials.
I would like to know how NX’ers go about mirroring a patterned feature?
My example is – a valve has two drilled flanges. I normally;
1. position & size the first hole on a flange face, then
2. cut extrude it,
3...
Hi I would like to know from PTC user's if PTC Creo does structural modelling? (I use Inventor which I consider to be "very good" at structural & piping - I am looking for a hard-core app. that can handle very large plant assemblies - 10,000 parts - and does structural & piping in 3D parametric)...
Hi I’m not totally familiar with ANSYS. I want to find a way to compute the net (total) heat flow rather than the discrete steps of heat flow that match a mesh.
In the example a copper rod has a constant temp. applied at each end (200C one end and 93C at other). Convection heat transfer...
Hi, does anyone have first-hand experience welding 441 thin wall tube - 46mm OD ~1mm wall thickness.
What welding technique is best suited, is filler rod used? If so what?
Is argon purging - pressurising the internals of the pipes - required?
This material is used in the auto industry for...
I am trying to extrude font to form a cut-out in a flat part. Typically a laser cutter will cut out the font - I did it once and can't get the same result now - don't want big holes where missing text pieces "fall out" because there is no rib holding them to the parent part.
I have the...
Hi, I have searched and cannot find any reference to this question.
I am looking at 3D engineering packages and have heard that Siemens (UGS) NX 7 is a "wow". While it may be excellent at shapes and machine parts etc, I am interested to know;
1. if it has good structural detailing features and...
Is there a source that provides detailed boiler efficiency calculations that shows how a boiler efficiency value is derived from the standpoint of the combustion side data.
This gets most confusing when the values are intermingled to suit whoever the seller is![mad]
e.g. a firetube boiler...
