These revolutions along with the loads, are used in the appropriate selection of the bearings. These two inputs together determine the million number of revolutions to which the shaft supporting bearings are subjected.
The field entries, “LifeYears” and “HrsInDay” are the expected working years and the daily hours of operations respectively. Now let us add the equipment in the project by following the steps below.Ģ.Open CademPVD by double clicking on the software shortcut on your desktop.ģ.Click on the 'Equipment' menu, and select the submenu, 'Reaction Vessel'.Ĥ.Fill in the appropriate details that need to be filled in the displayed equipment configuration dialogue. Please refer to the above MDS for this equipment. All the components in contact with the internal process liquid are of SS 316 and the jacketing is of SS 304. It has an agitator, with 20 HP power and the Agitator Shaft RPM is 100. Its jacketing is of a plain shell type, partially covering the main shell and extending on to the bottom dished end. You can watch this tutorial video on the design of a reaction vessel with an agitator shaft here:ġ.In this example, we will see how to design the above Reaction Vessel with an Agitator Shaft using CademPVD software.
