Cfx, static structural analysis of tractor exhaust system based on fea

Abstract

The main objective of this research work is to design and static analysis of exhaust manifold of Tractor. Exhaust manifold is subjected to high gas temperature and pressure. Present study deal with the behavior of exhaust manifold material under applied high gas temperature and pressure. The Solid Modeling of exhaust manifold has been done using Pro-E. ANSYS 14.5 has been used for analysis. The simulation parameter is exhaust gas temperature and pressure. A maximum exhaust gas temperature of 800 °C and pressure of 2 bars was applied to the exhaust manifold. Numerical simulation results were used to calculate the deformation, strain and stress induced in the exhaust system due to applied temperature and pressure. Present research work can effectively solve the problem of design optimization for different materials. The simulation results were validated with experimental results available in literature.
