Im fairly new to designing pipeline systems, so I have a basic question:
Lets say I have a piping system that has 4000' straight pipe equaling 100' head and I have an appropriately sized pump attached to the system. Now, if I put a throttling valve in the middle of that pipeline, can that...
Here is my question:
Can you connect a plate to a beam? Say for instance I have four W 8X24 beams, making up a square. Now I make up a plate (4" thick concrete) using the same four nodes I used for the beams. Can I connect the beams to the edges of the plate so that any forces I place on the...

This should be real easy, but I am reading my old heat transfer book and I can't figure it out.
I know the temp of one side of a steel plate. What is the equation to find out the temp of the other side of the steel plate, and then temperatures at given distances away from the plate. I know...
