INTRODUCTION to FEA and ANSYS
What is FEA?
Finite Element analysis is a way to simulate loading conditions on a design and
determine the designs response to those conditions.
The design is modeled using discrete building blocks called elements.
Each element has exact equations that describe how it responds to a certain load.
The Sum of the response of all elements in the model gives the total response of
the design.
The elements have a finite number of unknowns, hence the name finite elements.
The finite element model, which has a finite number of unknowns, can only
approximate the response of the physical system which has infinite unknowns.
How good is the approximation?
Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to this question, it depends entirely on what
you are simulating and the tools you use for the simulation.
Why is FEA needed?
To reduce the amount of prototype testing.
Computer Simulation allows multiple what ifscenarios to be tested quickly and
effectively.
To simulate designs those are not suitable for prototype testing. E.g. Surgical Implants
such as an artificial knee.
About ANSYS:
ANSYS is a complete FEA software package used by engineers worldwide in
virtually all fields of engineering. ANSYS is a virtual Prototyping technique used to
iterate various scenarios to optimize the product.
General Procedure of Finite Element Analysis:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Creation of geometry or continuum using preprocessor.

Discretization of geometry or continuum using preprocessor.
Checking for convergence of elements and nodes using preprocessor.
Applying loads and boundary conditions using preprocessor.
Solving or analyzing using solver
Viewing of Results using postprocessor.
Build Geometry:
Construct a two (or) three dimensional representation of the object to be modeled and
tested using the work plane co-ordinate system in Ansys.
Define Material Properties:

Define the necessary material from the library that composes the object model which
includes thermal and mechanical properties.
Generate Mesh:
Now define how the model system should be broken down into finite pieces.
Apply Loads:
The last task in preprocessing is to restrict the system by constraining the
displacement and physical loading.
Obtain Solution:
The solution is obtained using solver available in ANSYS. The computer can
understand easily if the problem is solved in matrices.
Present the Result:
After the solution has been obtained there are many ways to present Ansys result
either in graph or in plot.
Specific Capabilities of ANSYS Structural Analysis:
Structural analysis is probably the most the common application of the finite element
method such as piston, machine parts and tools.
Static Analysis:
It is the used to determine displacement, stress etc. under static loading conditions.
Ansys can compute linear and non-linear types (e.g. the large strain hyper elasticity
and creep problems).
Transient Dynamic Analysis:
It is used to determine the response of a structure to time varying loads.
Buckling Analysis:
It is used to calculate buckling load and to determine the shape of the component after
applying the buckling load. Both linear buckling and non linear buckling analysis
are possible.
Thermal Analysis:
The steady state analysis of any solid under thermal boundary conditions calculates
the effect of steady thermal load on a system (or) component that includes the
following.
a)Convection.
3
LAB MANUAL
b)Radiation.
c)Heat flow rates.
d)Heat fluxes.
e)Heat generation rates.
f) Constant temperature boundaries.
Fluid Flow:
The ANSYS CFD offers comprehensive tools for analysis of two-dimensional and
three dimensional fluid flow fields.
Magnetic:
Magnetic analysis is done using Ansys / Electromagnetic program. It can calculate the
magnetic field in device such as power generators, electric motor etc. Interest in
magnetic analysis is finding magnetic flux, magnetic density, power loss and
magnetic forces.
Acoustic / Vibrations:
Ansys is the capable of modeling and analyzing vibration system. Acoustic is the
study of the generation, absorption and reflection of pressure waves in a fluid
application.
Few examples of acoustic applications are
a) Design of concert house, where an even distribution of sound pressure is
possible.
b) Noise cancellation in automobile.
c) Underground water acoustics.
d) Noise minimization in machine shop.
e) Geophysical exploration.
Coupled Fields:
A coupled field analysis is an analysis that takes into account the interation
between two (or) more fields of engineering analysis. Pressure vessels,
Induction heating and Micro electro mechanical systems are few examples.
Result: Thus the basics of FEA and ANSYS are studied.

at the beginning of the analysis, this data can be found as file.rth. We will use these results in
determining the structural effects.

Hand calculations were performed to verify the solution found using ANSYS:
As shown, the stress in the link should be a uniform 180 MPa in compression.
Result:
Thus the thermal stress analysis of 2D component is performed and the stress in each element ranges
from -0.180e9 Pa, or 180 MPa in compression.

CONDUCTIVE HEAT TRANSFER ANALYSIS OF 2D COMPONENT
Aim:
This tutorial was created to solve a simple conduction problem. The thermal conductivity (k)
of the material is 10 w/m C and the block is assumed to be infinitely long.
Procedure:
2. Preprocessor > Element type > Add/edit /delete > Select thermal mass solid, Quad 4 node
55 (Plane 55) > close.
> KXX = 10 (thermal Conductivity )
4. Preprocessor > modeling > create > Areas > Rectangle > By 2 Corners > X = 0, Y = 0,
width = 1, Height = 1 > Ok.
6. Solution > Analysis type > New analysis > steady state > Ok.
7. Solution > Define loads > Apply > Thermal > Temperature > On nodes
a. Click the box option and draw a box around the nodes on the top line.
b. Fill the window in as shown to constrain the side to a const. temperature of 500.
c. Using the same method, constrain the remaining 3 sides to a constant value of
100.
8. Solution > solve > Current LS.
9. General Preprocessor > Plot results > Contour Plot > Nodal Solution > DOF solution >
nodal temperature (TEMP) > Ok.
Result:
Thus conductive heat transfer analysis is performed.
