Micro Arc Oxidation

In order to realize the application of finite element analysis in structural optimization of micro-arc oxidation electrode, effects of two kinds of electrode mode (one and two cathodes) on thickness and surface morphology of ceramic coatings prepared by micro-arc oxidation on aluminum alloy were researched by experiment. Meanwhile, Ansoft Maxwell finite element software was used to analysis the main influence factor (electric field intensity). We contrasted the analysis conclusion above with the forecast results in experiment. Effect of electric field intensity on thickness and surface morphology of ceramic coatings were explained from micro level, the correctness of the finite element analysis software was verified. The results show that three electrodes mode is better than two electrodes mode, the former can not only make the thickness of ceramic coatings thicker, but also make sure the size and quantity of discharge channel bigger and more, and growth power enough.

The working principle of ring capacitance sensor is introduced, that is capacitance fringe effect. Finite element model is established through the Hybrid-Trefftz algorithm. Electric field analysis and simulation calculation of different sensor model are done with the finite element software ANSYS, and the optimal structure combination is obtained. And followed the example of optimal structure, the relation of dielectric constant and electric field intensity were given. The result of simulation shows the most direct and the most important two parameters that affect the sensor performance in the design of the ring capacitance sensor are the two electrodes spacing and the length. The dielectric constant of measured medium is smaller, the intensity of electric field intensity is greater. The simulation for subsequent product design has a good theoretical guidance.

Inner Vessel

Inner vessel in reactor assembly of sodium cooled fast reactor separates hot and cold pool sodium. The shape of inner vessel is optimized with reduced upper & lower shell diameters and toroidal redan for future Fast Breeder Reactor (FBR). This results in higher buckling strength and reduced thickness and hence reduced weight. To achieve the intricate toroidal shape with specified dimensional tolerances, a comprehensive technology development exercise was carried out successfully for the manufacture of inner vessel 30° sector. The achieved profile of the redan meets the specified dimensions and other design requirements. Spring-back observed in the sector was small. To verify the developmental exercise results, a finite element analysis (FEA) of forming of inner vessel sector was performed on finite element software ABAQUS. In this paper, FEA results and spring back are discussed. Spring back assessed is maximum at the center and relatively lower towards the edges for the redan with the chosen radius of 5980 mm.

The Finite Element Analysis

Uncertainty modelling with random variables motivates the adoption of advanced PTM for reliability analysis to solve problems of mechanical systems. Probabilistic transformation method (PTM) is readily applicable when the function between the input and the output of the system is explicit. When these functions are implicit, a technique is proposed that combines finite element analysis (FEA) and probabilistic transformation method (PTM) that is based on the numerical simulations of the finite element analysis (FEA) and the probabilistic transformation method (PTM) using an interface between finite element software and Matlab. Structure problems are treated with the proposed technique, and the obtained results are compared to those obtained by the reference Monte Carlo method. A second aim of this work is to develop an algorithm of global optimization using the local method SQP. The proposed approach MSQP is tested on test functions comparing with other methods, and it is used to resolve a structural problem under reliability constraints.

Small Wind Turbine

In this article, three small wind turbine blades of different materials were manufactured. Finite element analysis was carried out using finite element software ANSYS 14.5 on modeled blades of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 4412 airfoil profile. From finite element analysis, first, two flap-wise natural frequencies and mode shapes of three different blades are obtained. Experimental vibration analysis of manufactured blades was carried out using fast Fourier transform analyzer to find the first two flap-wise natural frequencies. Finally, the results obtained from the finite element analysis and experimental test of three blades are compared. Based on vibration analysis, we found that the natural frequency of glass fiber reinforced plastic blade reinforced with aluminum sheet metal (small) strips increases compared with the remaining blades. An increase in the natural frequency indicates an increase in the stiffness of blade.
