ring disk versus solid disk axial flow check valve

As instructed, found below are highly specific and concise bullet points taken from the webpage for later reference in relation to disabling Sysmain/Superfetch on Windows operating systems:

• Sysmain was designed to fetch files for programs into HDD’s local RAM cache so that program load times are reduced. It loads frequently used programs into memory so they may start faster.
• People have varying opinions on whether Sysmain/Superfetch improves or worsens computer performance.
• Sysmain/Superfetch doesn’t do anything useful anymore, as there’s no perceptible benefit.
• Disabling Sysmain/Superfetch may improve computer performance temporarily, but it lasts only minutes or hours at most.
• Disabling Sysmain/Superfetch slows down the computer even more than when enabled.
• With HDDs, Sysmain doesn’t seem to help in Windows 7-10, although this may differ with XP.
• Memory compression does not work with disabled Sysmain, although it’s unclear who needs this feature today.
• You can disable Prefetcher in Regedit to achieve a similar effect of disabling Sysmain/Superfetch without sacrificing PageCombining and RAM Compression.
• Connected user experiences and telemetry should be disabled first before disabling Sysmain/Superfetch.
• The comments state that there is no real negative on modern systems with an SSD for an OS and main programs, with lots of RAM, and Windows 10’s intelligent memory compression. Unused ram equals wasted ram.
• Windows is designed to automatically disable Sysmain/Superfetch on SSDs unless disabled by the user, as constant disk I/O interferes with its function.
• Disabling Sysmain/Superfetch enables faster loading maps during gameplay in Call of Duty games installed on HDDs.
• Without Sysmain/Superfetch, complete series of bugs and asking a lot of computer-related questions on forums will be avoided.
• Sysmain/Superfetch slows down computer performance if it’s limited in RAM and on a slower HDD, as it uses the HDD to 100 percent.
• Windows maintenance should be stopped using registry methods.
• Disabling Sysmain/Superfetch saves CPU usage.
• Sysmain/Superfetch is useless for SSDs, and disabling it doesn’t hurt.
• On an HDD, Sysmain/Superfetch should be kept if it’s working correctly, but disabled if it starts pulling full resources.
• Sysmain/Superfetch isn’t a critical process, and it can be turned back on if needed or if no improvement is observed after disabling it.
• There’s a claim that Sys

• When an object is rolling, it has two types of kinetic energy: motion in space (path down the ramp) and rotation (spin around the center of mass as it rolls).
• Each centimeter of vertical drop gives the object a certain amount of energy, from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy.
• More energy in setting the object spinning means less energy is left over to make it move down the slope.
• Solid and hollow cylinders have different amounts of mass distributed across their respective axes of rotation.
• The further an object’s mass is from the axis of rotation, the more energy it takes to make it spin.
• The solid sphere has the smallest moment of inertia because its mass is distributed closer to its center of mass.
• The amount of energy in a spinning object depends on how far its mass is from the axis of rotation.
• The distance from the center point of an object determines the amount of force applied along a longer line away from the axis, giving it more acceleration per rotation.
• Friction is not a factor because, at any given point in time, the object touching the ground is stationary with respect to the ground.
• According to another commenter, the mass and less friction of the solid sphere allows it to roll the fastest.
• A solid sphere with higher mass and less friction rolls faster due to the force and acceleration.
• A comparison of a solid and ring disk axial flow check valve was not discussed on the webpage.

• Discussion of deflection of a circular plate with fixed support under a point load at the edge.
• Users suggest checking Roark’s (specifically table 11.2 - cases 1L and 24), Timoshenko’s and other equations for plate deflection, but some users point out that these may not be helpful for non-uniform radial loading.
• One user suggests representing the point load as a Dirac delta function and using Fourier transform to solve it.
• Some users suggest using approximation theory or finite element analysis (FEA) to solve the problem, as this is a non-standard loading condition.
• Approximation theory can be used to rapidly solve the problem, as a simple disk is involved as the domain. Chebfun (Matlab) and ApproxFun.jl (Julia) are suggested packages.
• Another user suggests modeling the problem with FEA, but acknowledges that there may be accuracy issues.
• Some users suggest using beam theory to estimate a lower or upper bound of stress based on variable thickness, or treating the problem like a cantilevered beam with varying cross-sectional properties.
• A user suggests visual analysis software by IES, which can be used instead of FEA.
• It is noted that FEA programs may not be accessible, as they can be expensive. Some users recommend hand calculations as a basis for understanding and spot-checking FEA results.
• One user recommends being aware of the support conditions - the unloaded free end beyond the support will deflect upwards relative to how rigid the connection to the support is.
• The problem of deflection for this loading condition is described as involving a massive number of plate elements, each with multiple degrees of freedom which have little shears and moments occurring, making the necessary computations far in excess of doing things by hand.
• One user questions whether the end far from the load can be treated as having zero deflection. If the connection to the support is not infinitely rigid, a free end will deflect upwards.
• Deflection for the loaded end will depend on the support condition. If the support is completely rigid, a cantilevered beam approach with varying cross-sectional properties based on radial distance from point of support becomes appropriate. A completely free support or one with some amount of play will result in different solutions.
• A user suggests ballparking it as a cantilevered beam if accuracy is not important.

Notes:

• The webpage is a Reddit post from the “truenas” subgroup.

• The discussion is on the best way to set up TrueNAS Scale in terms of running it as bare-metal or as a VM on Proxmox.

• A user recommended running TrueNAS as a bare-metal installation to avoid performance issues seen with running TrueNAS as a VM. Other users agreed with this assessment.

  • One user said that running firewalls and network-attached storage as VMs creates a problem with performance, weirdness, and dependency availability problems, and that it’s best to run them as bare metal.

• Another user explained his setup: he’s running TrueNAS Scale in an ESXi VM and passing through an IBM 1015 HBA to TrueNAS Core, with three other Ubuntu VMs running various services, including Plex for transcoding, all accessing data stored on the TrueNAS via NFS. He stated that the VMs are running well and with better performance. He also pointed out that when an OS requires an update or needs rebooting, it doesn’t affect the whole system.

• Another user shared their experience of running two nodes - one bare-metal and one on XCP-ng - and advised that using XCP-ng with TrueNAS will require adequate technical knowledge before completing the installation. They added that it works better and has more distinctive features than if run as a bare-metal installation.

• Two users discussed how to pass through PCIe cards, one of these NVIDIA graphics card and a PCIe Google Coral card, to a docker container on a bare-metal installation of TrueNAS Scale.

• One user asked for more information on how another user passed the drives to XCP-ng, and how the latter was able to achieve blistering transfer speeds. The other user suggested looking into if XCP-NG guest tools were installed on the VM.

• One user asked how the bare-metal install went, as they were encountering issues with their VM not grabbing its IP on their TrueNAS install.

• Another user shared their experience with running TrueNAS Scale as a VM on top of XCP-ng, explaining that it allows updating of TrueNAS without affecting other VMs or containers and that they had more fine-tuned control to configure the VM when using XCP. They added that they had no issues passing NICs, Video Cards, and HBAs through to the TrueNAS VM.

• One user asked about the specs of another user’s Supermicro system.

Relevant: true Importance: 3 Notes:

• Check valves are not super reliable and may not work effectively for backflow prevention.
• Local codes typically require a more reliable backflow protection device.
• Check valves allow water to flow only in one direction.
• Check valves can serve as an important means of backflow prevention in low-risk scenarios.
• Check valves can fail due to many reasons, such as worn seat seals, lodged debris, water hammer, improper maintenance, installation, or assembly.
• Check valves can experience wear, and damaged components can escape into the line, causing other valves or equipment to malfunction.
• Check valves require more maintenance than backflow preventers.
• Backflow preventers have extra fail-safes to ensure that drinking water does not get contaminated with non-potable water.
• Backflow preventers are designed to keep drinking water pure and prevent non-potable water in a building’s systems from backing up and contaminating the drinking water.
• Local plumbing codes typically require backflow preventers for effective backflow prevention.
• DCV, PVB, and RPZ are some of the more reliable backflow preventers available.
• DCV or double-check valves are often used in valve boxes below grade in Oregon.
• PVBs are commonly installed with copper plumbing in Arizona.
• PVBs and DC/RP backflow preventers can be tested/inspected, and some failures can be visibly seen.
• Check valves are less reliable than backflow preventers.
• Backflow preventers need to be installed upstream from zone valves.
• Check valves work well as a backup system on low-risk irrigation systems.
• Check valves may not work effectively for high-risk scenarios, especially for drinking water systems.
• Check valves should not be the sole form of backflow prevention.

• The original post on Reddit is by a user working at a refinery, concerned about the presence of two dissimilar non-return valves (NRV) in the naptha hydrotreating unit feed pumps.
• It is specifically mentioned in the P&ID that the 2 NRV should be of different type and should be non-slamming type.
• Someone identified a reverse flow risk in a HAZOP. If the pump trips the downstream hydrotreating reactor at 450psig, it will backflow through the pump into the feed surge drum with an MAWP of probably 50psig. 450psig/50psig is an over pressure of 9x.
• If a relief valve sizing for the reverse flow material is needed, a closed check valve may be used to assume that 10% of the check valve diameter is available for flow, which restricts the flow rate significantly and makes your relief load much smaller so you can install smaller valves.
• Many companies require the use of two dissimilar types of check valves to take credit for load reduction for a PSV sizing calc and in PHAs.
• It’s an industry practice to put two dissimilar types: ex swing check and piston, thinking the failure modes are different and at least one will always work.
• Different types of check valves are advisable for limiting reverse flow rates and avoiding pressurization of the upstream system.
• Some companies go a step further and have an SIS Chopper valve on the pump discharge line to prevent high-pressure gas from reaching the surge drum. The valve will start moving when the pump is turned off, which closes in less than 2 seconds.
• The presence of two dissimilar valves lowers the chances that if one valve fails, the other in the same service and location would fail in the same way, especially in services like o2 where slamming of a check valve could cause an explosion.
• The purpose of having two dissimilar check valves is to have different failure modes. This allows for a single check valve to be functional as a safety device in a PHA.
• Check valves can be unreliable, and having two dissimilar valves reduces the likelihood of losing both if something goes wrong with one of them.
• Common for double redundant systems.
• Different natural harmonics are advisable when attempting to avoid problems created from flow.
• Some individuals have seen the use of similar NRVs in parallel for clean service and put them on the maintenance list for turnarounds.

• Check valves are notoriously unreliable.
