I am trying to compute the surface stress on a steel tube when a spring (made of steel wire) is wrapped around the outside of this tube. The steel wire wraps itself around this tube as the tube spins at about 50 rpm.
I suppose that I first need to compute the tension in the steel wire. When...
Would it be possible to heat CO2 which is at 20 - 40 psia pressure to a final temperature of 400 deg C, in a heat exchanger of the shell and tube type? I suppose that the heating medium (hot air, for example) should have an entry temperature of 500 deg C.
I seem to recall reading somewhere...
