The stainless steel reaches temperatures of up to 140 degrees celcius. The actual deflection in the model is a fraction of a mm. However, it also plots a factor of safety throughout the model. The FOS for nearly the whole model is 0.5, 0.9 if I change it to tensile strenght rather than yield...
Hi
That's not the case with this one. As the temperature is reduced the factor of safety gets higher. It just gives baffling results considering I've based it off an existing commercial heat exchanger.
If I could find a paper somewhere that explains why it might not be the best indicator I...
Hi Guys
I'm analysing a heat exchanger based on an existing commercial model in SolidWorks Simulation. The same materials etc have been applied to it in the Static analysis.
Deflection on the heat exchanger is very small. The one thing that baffles me though is how, regardless of even...
Hi
Recently performed a very basic fluid mechanics experiment with water flowing at different speeds through a Venturi Rig. Most of it went as expected, total head stayed roughly the same throughout but slightly decreased from flow loss due to resistant forces.
However, at certain random...
