GGDT/HGDT Request Thread
Posted: Thu Aug 25, 2011 5:22 pm
So this is a topic where you may request GGDT/HGDT outputs assuming your own computer is unable to run them. To make a request, you will be required to understand how to use GGDT/HGDT. This thread isn't for people who are too lazy to learn how to use the programs.
Guidelines:
*You must provide all relevant input parameters for the GGDT/HGDT simulation. A list of input parameters can be found HERE. Obviously parameters like "Hamr Mass" are not required when modelling valves that don't have a hammer.
*If you are unsure of what values to put for some of the valve parameters (such as dwell time, flow coefficient, etc), provide as much information as possible about the valve and the person running the simulation should be able to estimate a value.
*We are not work horses so if you wish to request more than one simulation (e.g. change in pressure, chamber volume) for a particular design, please request all simulations at the same time. Saves us time and effort.
*If no one accepts your request, wait a few days before requesting again.
If anyone has any suggestions to improve this thread, just comment below.
Any topics asking things like what size chamber/barrel they should have on their cannon or how powerful their cannon may be, will be merged here for someone to compute an output for them.

The cutaway view shows the threads between the main valve body and the cap on the pilot side... don't worry you can open that as the pilot port is not ideally round
