line with expansion joint: force on flange and on pump inner surface
i have a straight line with an expansion joint (without tie-rods) connected to a pump flange.
- line pressure is P
- expansion joint "inner hole" surface is S.
Let assume caesar gives force on pump flange node equal to 1000N.
Question: do the "1000N" contain both force on pump flange both the force on inner pump wall or not?
i mean: force on inner pump wall is P*S
is force on pump flange 1000N or 1000-P*S?
