Designing a Hirth Spline
Tjerk de Graaff

Beginner
Solidworks + Excel instruction on how to design a Hirth Spline. Background on Hirth Splines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirth_joint The basic idea of a Hirth spline / Hirth Joint is that the whole geometry is defined from a combination of a single reference point and a grinding/cutting geometry. Two Hirth splines with the same basic tooth geometry will match to form a secure joint that can transfer torque and allows for accurate alignment of parts. Hirth splines and joints are often used in turbomachinery to accurately align various shaft parts and transfer torque.

Multi Layer Coil is a tube designed to transfer heat effectively in heat exchanger or other devices. Also I have calculation to prove that this is effective than ordinary single coil for same lengths. Model can be downloaded https://grabcad.com/library/multi-layer-coil-heat-exchanger-1. Native formats are also available.

For the case study of modifying and transferring this tutorial makes use of Blender. Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, virtual reality, and, formerly, video games.
