    ansys workbench wind load . pressure

    I'm attempting to use ansys workbench 11, to model a series of vessels mounted on a steel base frame. The soldiers model imports fine and has a series of static loads and moments applied to it. However I also need to allow for wind loading, I have a wind speed I've converted to a wind...

    ANSI Flange deformation

    Thanks Gents. I agree the degree of flange deformation is unlikely to be problematic, when with the allowable range of gasket stresses. Thanks everybody

    ANSI Flange deformation

    Hi I have a client whom is concerned about Raised face flange deformation, due to over tightening of bolts. So is keen to define bolting torques to ensure this is avoided. The application is 300lb RF with fibre gaskets, defining the torque for the required gasket is not a problem. But i'd...

    Entrainment mesh eliminators - Double pad

    Gents I'm designing a vertical vessel, 70" oil separator, with knitted wire mist eliminator. For separating oil mist from a gas stream. We have plenty of experience in designing horizontal vessels with these mesh pads , but less so in vertical vessels The Vessel diameter is sized based on the...

    ice formation expansion valves

    Gents Please provide an opinion a collegue and myself are having discussion on the following. The example below applies to a refrigeration system, in which a small amount of mositure has entered through either poor vacuum processs or air coming into the system. if we are expanding a saturated...

    Tank Heaters - W/m

    Gents I have a tank of lubricating oil that i wish to pre heat before it can be used to lubricate a compressor. i wish to pre-heat to 40degC from a min of 0degC, within a 12hr period. I have accounted for losses through the walls of the vessel and also had a rough estimate from the surface of...

    vectors for simple for and if loop

    ladies / Gents A very simple one, i'm pretty new to mathcad and am having trouble with the logic below. I have been attempting to write a function to look through an existing vector / array (L) testing whether the values within it are between two limit conditions (RAL & RBL). If the valves...

    dynamic array sizing

    I would like to be able to size an array (vector) by means of a variable. Essentially i have input data that i input into a number of vectors, the number of data points, ie rows changes each time, however i can't afford to have blank / zeros due to subsequent calculations. I'd like to be able...

    formula recognition

    Gents can someone give me a hint or two on the following please. I'm trying to work through some else"s calculations i have a simple frame two vertical members, bridged at the top by a single Horizontal member. Vertical height = h Horizontal length = between vertical members = L I1 = second...
