NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF THE STRENGTH OF TANKS DEDICATED TO HOT UTILITY WATER
Journal Title: Applied Computer Science - Year 2018, Vol 14, Issue 4
Abstract
The focus of this paper are experimental and numerical strength tests of domestic hot water storage tanks. The tests involved the verification of the minimum wall thickness for the assumed operating parameters while meeting all safety standards. The authors presented numerical and experimental analyses for the verification of strength parameters of axial cylindrical tanks due to the lack of methodological guidelines for this type of equipment. In order to verify the conducted theoretical considerations and calculations, experimental tests of samples of front welds produced with austenitic steel as well as a pressure test for the whole tank were conducted using a research test stand. *

NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF THE DRAG COEFFICIENT OF A MOTORCYCLE HELMET
The paper discusses a numerical investigation, using a CFD tool, ANSYS FLUENT, of drag acting on a motorcycle helmet. The simulations were performed on a model of a helmet downloaded from a free CAD model library. A soli...
ENCAPSULATION OF IMAGE METADATA FOR EASE OF RETRIEVAL AND MOBILITY
Increasing proliferation of images due to multimedia capabilities of hand-held devices has resulted in loss of source information resulting from inherent mobility. These images are cumbersome to search out once stored aw...
IDENTIFICATION OF A BACKLASH ZONE IN AN ELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEM CONTAINING CHANGES OF A MASS INERTIA MOMENT BASED ON A WAVELET–NEURAL METHOD
In this article a new method of identification of a backlash zone width in a structure of an electromechanical system has been presented. The results of many simulations in a tested model of a complex electromechanical s...
APPLYING ARDUINO FOR CONTROLLING CAR PARKING SYSTEM
With increasing automobiles in the parking space, we could face problems like unplanned parking, lack of discipline, wasting time and fuel while looking for free space around the parking ground. These problems could be s...
APPLICATION OF ACOUSTIC SIGNAL PROCESSING METHODS IN DETECTING DIFFERENCES BETWEEN OPEN AND CLOSED KINEMATIC CHAIN MOVEMENT FOR THE KNEE JOINT
The paper presents results of preliminary research of analysis of signals recorded for open and closed kinematic chain in one volunteer with chon-dromalacia in both knees. The preliminary research was conducted in order...
