I am trying to assess the impact of having an air gap between a hot running pipe and an insulating material. What I am wanting to consider is heat transmission across the gap from both air conduction and radiation mechanisms (the gap is small and the pipe is running at high temperatures so...
Hello,
I am wanting to determine if 316 stainless would be suitable for some load bearing components we would supply to the top of an offshore flare stack (>1m from the tip). Historically my company has employed a 'belts & braces' approach in selecting Alloy 800H. The main rational being the...
Hello,
with regard to determining the pressures acting on a monoslope roof of pitch = 0°, Components and Cladding provisions direct me to Figure 6-19A to which I am given two distinct gust coefficient (GCN) values for each zone, one positive and one negative. I am having difficulty in...
Hi,
could anyone with experience in this standard help explain something about the the effective width limit equations:
beff ≤ 4t ≤ be (3-47)
beff ≤ be 0.6 Fu/Fy √(Dh/be ) ≤ be (3-48)
Where:
Fy = Material Yield Strength
Dh = Hole Diameter
be = Actual width of a pin-connected plate...

Hi all, i'm hoping one of you may have had some eperience in applying pretensions to line bodies in Ansys. I've scoured the forums/google and found very lttle on the subject but I can't imagine it's not being widely used as it is an obvious time saver.
The geometry is a bolted...
