I am trying to find the exit velocity of the steam coming out of a steam condenser turbine. The inlet pressure is 1312.46 psia with a temperature of 867.67 F. The exit pressure is 7.84 psia with a temperature of 182.97 F. The mass flow rate through the turbine is 220,000 lbm/hr. Am I right in...

First off, thank you all for the intelligent responses. These products are for a Canadian customer that puts the same Charpy impact requirements on all of the products that they receive from us. Thanks, Lurks

Yes, these items are threaded fasteners with an upset head (carriage or hex). Typically the raw material is not even large enough to test. It starts as a round bar that is slightly larger, drawn down to the pitch diameter of the threads and then upset and threaded. Also, there is a post...

I am currently working on a project involving hardware ranging between 1/4" and 5/16" diameter. One of the requirements is that these items must have a minimum energy absorption of 20J @ -20C per ASTM A370 (10 mm X 10 mm sample). From what I can find the smallest sample size specified in ASTM...

Would you be able to put that in NX6? I can't open it. Thank you very much, lurks

This drawing should give a few more needed details. Thanks, lurkshttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=831b8e12-342b-4417-a483-78b88dfbc10b&file=P216-0258.jpg

That is very similar to what I was able to do. I should have been more clear in my question. I have attached pictures of the part I'm trying to model. The difficulty I am having is in getting the flat along the side as it curves up. I don't know if this is something that has to be done in a...

I have attached a model I am working on in NX6. I am trying to create a smooth transition between the two faces. I have tried a multitude of things but am not seeming to get it. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, lurks

I found the problem. For some reason the default was changed in the preferences for annotations. I changed this and everything is good. Thanks for your help. lurks

For some reason, whenever I go to add an annotation, ID symbol, etc. the lettering angle defaults to 90.99 degrees. How do I get it to default back to 0. Thanks in advance, lurks

John, I have attached the .prt file of what I've done in modeling. This was done using bridge curves and through curve mesh. I was just thinking that there was an easier way to do this in sheetmetal. Thanks...

I am trying to create what I think is a lofted flange. I am trying to go from a 3/8" full radius to 1" wide flat. Can this be done in sheet metal or do I have to do in modeling? Thanks in advance, lurks

Thank you John, that worked perfectly. lurks

What do you mean by that?

I have attached a screen shot of what I'm talking about.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=fac37a3c-32ad-4b80-bcc8-089bf7bf54f3&file=disappearing_lines.JPG

Yes, this is happening while creating it.

When I go from modeling to drafting some of the lines that are part of my model do not show up. For example if I am trying to make a drawing of a bolt assembly the line representing the edge of the bolt disappears from the bottom of the nut to the end that is chamfered. Does this make sense...

The vehicle that I am working with is a 2005 Dodge SRT-4. I would like to tune it for optimum performance on the street with the occassional trip to the track. I am a mechanical engineer by profession and an automotive enthusiast. Thanks, lurks

The engine in question is a turbo gasoline. What I am wanting to do is purchase the software necessary to do my own tuning. Does anyone have any suggestions for good research material for this? Thanks in advance, lurks
