I have a Pressure Safety Relief Valve (PSRV) in a steam line supplying some in-house test equipment. The PSRV is intended to protect the test equipment from over-pressurization.
Nominal crack/full-open pressures are 330/365 psig. During occasional trip-outs (unplanned, sudden shutdown of the...
I am looking for a "basic" explanation of B-splines that will allow me to:
1) understand their representation ("anchors" and "knots")
2) further manipulate them (generating X-Y pairs from spline characterization).
My web searches have yielded two types of sites...
I'll claim that this is "Looking ahead by looking back", so as to justify a post here, rather than the Engr. History forum (besides there are 3x as many members of this one):
Last night, while at a jazz club in Boston, I noticed across the river the building housing the (former) HQ of...
(This will be posted identically on Mech. Engr'g (#404) and also on Gears and Pulleys forum.)
I am trying to get any design references about the use of shaft keys with a round cross-section.
We are now trying to analyze this configuration because the original design work is 30+ years old...

I am looking for software and/or consulting resources to perform (or assist in) the aero/thermo design and analysis of a new “airfoil” profile for the rotating blades of steam turbine. Experience with turbomachinery (as...
I am looking for software and/or consulting resources to perform (or assist in) the aero/thermo design and analysis of a new “airfoil” profile for the rotating blades of steam turbine. Experience with turbomachinery (as distinct from wing design) is required.
I used the word “airfoil” in...
