A tobacco pipe, often called simply a pipe, is a device specifically made to smoke tobacco. It comprises a chamber (the bowl) for the tobacco from which a thin hollow stem (shank) emerges, ending in a mouthpiece. Pipes can range from very simple machine-made briar models to highly prized hand-made artisanal implements made by renowned pipemakers, which are often very expensive collector's items. Pipe smoking is the oldest known traditional form of tobacco smoking.
Hi,

Hello. May I ask if we have the technology to run a thread-making machine on the end of that 20" pipe in the Gulf leaking oil and then screw a 20" cap on it? Is there even a commercially-available 20" threader? Largest I've seen is 6". Granted the oil pressure would initially prevent...

We all know when velocity of fluid increases then cross section decreases for same mass flow rate and this can be well seen at water flowing from a height as in waterfalls.
But why this doesn't happen when water flows down through a vertical held pipe of constant cross section. Well you may...
I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some info on a problem I am facing.

Hi, I'm trying to calculate the max (von Mises) stress in a 90o pipe bend. Now I know (I think) how to do it for a straight pipe, but can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can find this analysis for a pipe bend?
