    European Equivalents to SA 53 & SA 105

    We're trying to get some valves manufactured in Germany, but our drawings have a material spec for SA 53 and SA 105 and that doesn't mean anything to our German machinist. Anyone have the equivalent material numbers for Germany? As far as I've been able to tell, SA 53-A seamless is Material...

    Office HVAC requirements

    Hi, I'm trying to find the appropriate standard that specifies requirements for office HVAC capacities. Our contractor tried to tell me that our system is "compliant per ANSI 2000" and that strikes me as suspect, since I don't think I've ever seen an ANSI standard in that format. Plus...

I'm trying to vent a small enclosure (on the order of 4x4x4) of exhaust gasses and want to make sure there's a...

    Air Entrainment into a Venturi

    (this is a cross-post from Gas Compression Engineering) This is basically part 2 of a previous project: a vapor stream is directed into the mouth of a venturi, which entrains air into the stream, resulting in a mixture. My problem comes from the fact that I don't understand the pressure...

    Exit Conditions of a Vapor Stream though a Nozzle

    Hi, I'm trying to calculate the exit conditions of a high-pressure LPG nozzle. I have the dimensions (interior @ state 1 and exit) of the nozzle and the initial conditions of the vapor (P1, T1), as well as the mass flow rate (mdot). P1 & T1 will give me density (rho) since mdot=rho*A*V, i can...
