Calculation of Local Loads

This task involves calculation of loads from different subprocesses (heat, humidity, contaminants). Loads are usually time dependent, which has to be taken into account. See Fig. 3.8.

Consider whether the local protection influences the emission of the process. In that case, return to Calculation of Local Loads. 

To determine the load distribution in a bolted connection accurately, taking into account the elastic properties of the joined members and the fasteners explicitly, it would be necessary to use a numerical method such as the finite element method (FEM). To greatly simplily the calculation of fastener load distribution it is assumed that the members are macroscopically rigid and that the elasticity is limited to local areas in the vicinity of the fasteners. It may furthermore be assumed that the load versus deformation response of an individual fastener is linear. Thus, the effect of member stiffness on fastener load distribution is taken into account by means of special correction factors. 

The coefficient of friction for copper on copper is about 0.9. Assuming that asperities or junctions can be represented by cones of base and height each about 5 x 10" cm, and taking the yield pressure of copper to be 30 kg/mm, calculate the local temperature that should be produced. Suppose the frictional heat to be confined to the asperity, and take the sliding speed to be 10 cm/sec and the load to be 20 kg.

To take care of peak loads in the winter, the local gas company wishes to supplement its limited supply of natural gas (CH4) by catalytically hydrogenating a heavy liquid petroleum oil that it can store in tanks. The supplier says that the oil has a U.O.P. Characterization Factor of 12.0 and an API gravity of 30°API. To minimize carbon deposition on the catalyst, twice the required amount of hydrogen is introduced with the oil. The reactants enter at 70 F and after heat exchange the products leave at 70 F. Calculate the following, per 1000 ft of CH4 at the standard conditions in the gas industry ... 

The thermal system model for radiant-tube continuous furnace involves integration of the mathematical models of the furnace enclosure, the radiant tube, and the load. The furnace enclosure model calculates the heat transfer in the furnace, the furnace gas, and the refractory walls. The radiosity-based zonal method of analysis [159] is used to predict radiation heat exchange in the furnace enclosure. The radiant-tube model simulates the turbulent transport processes, the combustion of fuel and air, and the convective and radiative heat transfer from the combustion products to the tube wall in order to calculate the local radiant-tube wall and gas temperatures [192], Integration of the furnace-enclosure model and the radiant-tube model is achieved using the radiosity method [159]. Only the load model is outlined here. 

Our computer program simulates the burial and thermal histories and petroleum potential in sedimentary basins and considers the thermal regime in the sedimentary blanket and the underlying lithosphere. Consequently, modeled calculations of basement tectonic subsidence can be used to control the sequence of tectonic and thermal events in the lithosphere. These computations assume that the lithosphere has local isostatic response to load therefore, applications to areas in dynamic active belts having anomalously high values of free-air gravity require corrections for tectonic subsidence. 

On the other hand, the displacement is accompanied by a rotation of the local surface tangent by a bending angle il> (Fig. 3.7c). Trivially, tan( ) = dw/dx. The calculation of the actual deformation profile w(x) is a common problem in elasticity, known as the bending of a beam without a distributed load. Mathematically, for weak deformation, which is assumed as usual, w(x) has to satisfy the differential equation ...
