I'm analyzing a pipe using FEMAP and I've been having some problems how best to constrain the model. The pipe is mounted on simple supports at 7.5m spacings. I've used shell (plate) elements to model half the cross section of the pipe to take into account bending and half the section between the...
Hi there,
I'm attempting to perform a modal test on a cantilever beam. The idea is to measure the strain at the constrained end using strain gauges, with output to a datalogger. A signal generator and shaker will provide the sinusoidal applied force at the tip. My question relates to how best...
I have a bit of a tricky heat transfer problem and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction if possible.
There is an above ground stainless steel pipeline containing crude oil @ 10degC and 130 m3/hr. The pipe has OD 508mm and thickness 6.35mm. A heating band is then...
This one has stumped me for a while and I can't seem to find an answer.
Why are commissioning sets always specified as being in the return leg of a LTHW system?
Is there a logical reason or just tradition?
Much obliged for your help :-)
