For the large centrifugal fan impeller, its working condition generally is bad, and its geometry generally is complex. So its displacements and stresses distribution are also complex. In this paper, we can obtain the fan impeller’s displacements and stresses distribution accurately through numerical simulation in G4-73 type centrifugal fan impeller using the finite element method software ANSYS. The calculation result shows that the maximum total displacement of the impeller is m, it occurs on the position of the half of the blade near the outlet of the impeller; and the maximum equivalent stress of the impeller is 193 MPa, it occurs on the contacted position of the blade and the shroud near inlet of the impeller. Furthermore, check the impeller strength, the result shows that the strength of the impeller can meet the requirement.

Aluminum Profiles

Flat receptacle, which is used in extruding the large aluminum profiles, is in harsh work conditions. Due to the irregularity of inner hole of flat receptacle, inconsistent resistance of shrinking fitting affects the inner hole within which nonuniform deformation occurs. If the nonuniformity exceeds the specified dimension accuracy, tiresome work including mould repairing and structure optimization has to be done. ANSYS is used to simulate the flat receptacle. It is shown that the maximum stress appears in the arc area of inner hole. Therefore, we present one new method using the preloaded layer with changeable shrinkage to replace the preloaded layer with uniform shrinkage. Considering the processing and assembling factors, we adopt the elliptical outer layer and circular inner layer as the new structure. Then the optimizations of flat receptacle with uniform and changeable shrinkage are implemented using the optimizing module, receptively. The optimized results show the maximum equivalent stress in the corner of inner-hole decreases about 5.47% if adopting the changeable shrinkage. The numerical simulation results show that the feasibility of changeable shrinkage and elliptical preloaded layer.

The article presents a numerical calculation of the corrugated wall of a transformer under pressure. The permissible degree of evacuation of the wavy transformer tank is determined. The statement of the problem is formulated as follows: to determine the limit of the maximum allowable pressure during the evacuation of the tank with different geometrical dimensions of the corrugation. In this case, the maximum equivalent stress should not exceed the yield point and the walls of the corrugation should not close. Numerical calculation is carried out by the finite element method. This approach to calculating the behavior of a corrugated wall under pressure can be used to determine the maximum allowable internal pressure of the tank.

The paper presents the results of research on the study of the elastic deformation of a flexible wheel from a double harmonic transmission, under the action of a cam wave generator. Knowing exactly how the flexible wheel is deformed is important in correctly establishing the geometric parameters of the wheels teeth, allowing a better understanding and appreciation of the specific conditions of harmonic gearings in the two stages of the transmission. The veracity of the results of this theoretical study on the calculation of elastic deformations and displacements of points located on the average fiber of the flexible wheel was subsequently verified and confirmed by numerical simulation of the flexible wheel, in the elastic field, using the finite element method from SolidWorks Simulation.

Cold expansion technology is an extended method used in aeronautics to increase fatigue life of holes and hence extending inspection intervals. During the cold expansion process, a mechanical mandrel is forced to pass along the hole generating compressive residual hoop stresses. The most widely accepted geometry for this mandrel is the tapered one and simpler options like balls have generally been rejected based on the non-conforming residual hoop stresses derived from their use. In this investigation a novelty process using multiple balls with incremental interference, instead of a single one, was simulated. Experimental tests were performed to validate the finite element method (FEM) models and residual hoop stresses from multiple balls simulation were compared with one ball and tapered mandrel simulations. Results showed that the use of three incremental balls significantly reduced the magnitude of non-conforming residual hoop stresses and the extension of these detrimental zone.

By the use of finite element method, this paper predicts the effects of the shapes of reinforcements with different ductility (Co) on the effective elastic response for WC-Co cemented carbide. This paper conducts a comparative study on the material properties obtained through theoretical model, numerical simulation and experimental observations. Simulation results indicate that the finite element method is more sophisticated than the theoretical prediction.
