TEMPERATURE ANALYSIS ON CYCLINDER

To Determine temperature distribution on the inside the cylinder using ABAQUS. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Consider a thin aluminum cylinder of length 1 m and inner and outer radii 0.2 m & 0.21 m respectively. The cylinder is kept fixed at one end and at the other end a tensile load of 200 kPa is applied. The fixed end of the cylinder is at 273.15 K (the ambient temperature) and the free end at 274.15 K (all other sides are insulated). The cylinder expands due to the heat flow. PROCEDURE:

The various functions within ABAQUS are organized into modules and we are going to use these modules to define the steps in our procedure. 1. >module load abaqus/6.9-2 2. >abaqus cae 3. Once you start ABAQUS CAE select Create Model Database to create a new model. 4. The default module that opens up is the Part Module. PART MODULE: This module allows you to create the geometry required for the problem. To create a 3-D geometry you first create a 2-D profile and then manipulate it to obtain the solid geometry. 1. From the Part Toolbox on the left of the viewport select Create Part. 2. You can name the part as cylinder or anything else you like. We are going to create a deformable solid shape in the 3-D modeling space through extrusion so we do not change the default selections. 3. Enter 1 as the approximate size and click Continue. 4. Click Create Circle Center and Perimeter on the drawing toolbox and enter 0, 0 as the center point in field below the viewport and press Enter. Enter the perimeter point as 0.21, 0 and press Enter to complete the circle. Similarly make another circle with the same center and the perimeter point as 0.2, 0. Press Esc to exit the circle definition and then press Done. 5. Enter the extrusion depth as 1 and press OK. 6. Click Auto-Fit View in the toolbar above to zoom out and view all the points. This finishes our work in the Part module. Select Module: Property from the toolbar above the viewport. PROPERTY MODULE: In this module you define the material properties for your analysis and assign those properties to the available parts. 1. Select Create Material from the Property Toolbox. 2. Enter material name as Aluminum. Click on the General tab and select Density from the drop-down menu. Type in the mass density as 2700. Click on the Mechanical tab and select Elasticity>Elastic from the drop-down menu. Enter the Youngs Modulus as 70E9 and the Poissons Ratio as 0.33. Click on the Mechanical tab and select Expansion. Edit the reference temperature to 273.15 and the expansion coefficient to 23e-6. Click on the

Thermal tab and select Conductivity. Enter the thermal conductivity as 160. Click on the Thermal tab and select Specific Heat. Enter the value as 900 and click OK. 3. Select Create Section from the property toolbox. Name the section as you like. We need a solid homogeneous section for our problem. Click Continue. Select the material as Aluminum and click OK. 4. Click Assign Section on the property toolbox and select the part from the viewport. Click Done below. Select the section you had created and click OK. Our work in the Property module is done and we select the Assembly Module from the toolbar above the viewport. ASSEMBLY MODULE: This module allows you to assemble together parts that you have created. Even if you have a single part you need to include it in your assembly. 1. Select Instance Part from the Assembly Toolbox. 2. Select the part you have created from the parts list and then select Instance type: Independent. Click OK. Select Module: Step from the toolbar above.

STEP MODULE: This module allows you to select the kind of analysis you want to perform on your model and define the parameters associated with it. You can also select which variables you want to included in the output files in this modules. You apply loads over a step. To apply a sequence of loads create several steps and define the loads for each of them. 1. Select Create Step from the Step Toolbox. 2. Name the step as you want and select Coupled temp-displacement as the procedure. Click Continue. 3. The edit step dialog box lets you choose the solution technique, the solver type and define the time stepping strategy. 4. Under Basic change the Response to Steady-state and click OK.

The Interaction Module allows you to set up interactions (contact, film), constraints, connectors, fasteners and wire feature between parts. Our problem does not involve any of these features but it will be a good idea to explore this module on your own at a later time. Select Module: Load from the toolbar above. LOAD MODULE: The Load Module is where you define the loads and boundary conditions for your model for a particular step (indicated in the toolbar above). You can even define loads and boundary conditions as fields like electric potential, acoustic pressure, etc. 1. Select Create Load from the Load Toolbox. Select Surface Traction and click Continue. Select the top face of the cylinder (z=1) (it gets highlighted in red) and click Done. 2. Change the Traction type to General. Click on the Edit tab under Direction in the dialog box. Enter the starting point of the direction vector as (0, 0, 0) and the end point as (0,0, 1). Enter the Magnitude as 2e5 and click OK. 3. Select Create Boundary Condition from the Load Toolbox. Select Symmetry / Antisymmetry / Encastre and click Continue. Select the bottom face (z=0) of the cylinder and click Done. Select Pinned (U1=0, U2=0, U3=0) and click OK. 4. Again select Create Boundary Condition from the Load Toolbox. Switch Category to Other and select Temperature and click Continue. Select the bottom face of the cylinder and press Done. Enter the magnitude as 273.15 and click OK. Similarly put the top face at 274.15. Now that we have defined the loads and the boundary conditions we move on to mesh the geometry. Select Module: Mesh from the toolbar above the viewport. MESH MODULE: The mesh model controls how you mesh your model the type of element, their size etc. 1. Select Seed Part Instance from the mesh toolbox. Enter the approximate global size as 0.025. 2. Click on Mesh Part Instance and then on Yes to mesh the model. 3. Select Assign Element Type from the mesh toolbox. Under Family select Coupled Temperature-Displacement and switch Geometric Order to Quadratic. Click OK. When finished

select Module: Job from the toolbar above. JOB MODULE: This module allows you to submit your model for analysis. 1. Select Create Job from the Job Toolbox. Name the job as you like. Select your model and click Continue. 2. You can add a description to the job, allocate memory, allot multiple processors and select precision. Use the default values and click OK. 3. Select the Job Manager from the toolbox and click on the Write Input tab. 4. If you are running the job for the first time it is advisable to run Data Check to check the input file for errors. Click OK to overwrite the job files. 5. Once the data check is completed Submit the job for analysis. Click OK to overwrite the job files. You can click Monitor to observe the progress of the solution process. You can see the errors, warnings, data and message file. 6. Once the job is completed click on the Results tab on the job manager. This opens the Visualization Module for post processing. VISUALIZATION MODULE: This model allows you to look at your model after deformation. You can also plot values of stress, displacement, reaction forces, etc. as contours on your model surface or as vectors or tensors. 1. Select Plot Deformed Shape from the Visualization toolbox. 2. Select Plot Contours on Deformed Shape to plot stress contours on the model surface. 3. You can see the location of the maximum & minimum stresses by selecting Contour Options>Limits>Show Location. 4. Select Results>Field Output from the main menu. This opens a dialog box that allows you to select the variable you want to plot in the viewport. 5. Select U (Spatial Displacement at nodes)>Magnitude>OK to plot the displacement contours on the model. 6. To plot displacement vectors click on Plot Symbols on Deformed Shape on the toolbox. 7. You can now animate this plot by selecting Animate Harmonic.
