Can anyone suggest a calculation method to determine the pressure drop for a fluid through a 10x10 strainer mesh?
Viscosity: 200cp
Flow: 180 GPM
Velocity 8 ft/sec
Tube dia: 2.875 ID
Screen 56% open area
The screen is formed into a vertical basket with a 4" dia flat end. It is 16" long...
In calculating the safe design of a stop for a vertical hoist in case of hoist line failure Is there a simple formula that can be used to calculate the force applied due to the impact loading on the stops?
The only formula I can find works by relating static deflection to deflection caused by...
Does anyone know of a chart available on line for acceptable sizes of crane rails to be used with hoist trolleys. Specifically, I am looking for an acceptable beam to be used for a 10 ton hoist. I have sized the beam but am being questioned about the bending resistance of the bottom flange. The...
