    Resolving Forces and Sizing Profiles in Structural Engineering

    I'm with a home study structural engineering as an electrical engineer. The assignment that I am trying to do is calculating a frame to support a large pipe with a weight of 32,000 kN distributed across eight legs. ( so it on a job site) I've performed a detailed analysis of the forces using...

    Superheater - pressure and temperature distribution

    Hello, I'm not a specialist, but this is what I know from a study project I did in the past. Perhaps someone else can further answer your question or correct my response. (1) Why are there four thermocouples at the center of the heating bundle? why not the inlet being measured? The four...

    How to Calculate Forces on Sun Wheels in a Planetary Gear System?

    Hi I'm thinking based on the assumption that the arms are symmetrical and the forces are equal on these arms, then I believe this could be the solution. There are probably more methods available, and I'd be glad to hear about them or any points for improvement, or if I'm entirely mistaken...

    How to Calculate Forces on Sun Wheels in a Planetary Gear System?

    Hello everyone, I hope somebody can assist me with this. I am working on a calculation for a planet gear with 4 sun wheels and 1 planet wheel. The aim is to determine the forces on the sun wheel. Initially, I have 3 equations and 4 unknowns. By making an assumption based on symmetry, I now have...

    Engineering Control System mass spring damper

    Hello everybody I have a question about my control system, and I've included a diagram for reference. In the diagram below, I've illustrated three different control schemes using Simulink. The first scheme represents a PI controller for a mass-spring-damper system, which I understand well. It...
