AIM:
To perform Thermal analysis on square plate considering conduction and to find the
temp distribution along the required path and show on it in graph.
HARDWARE REQUIRED:
o Intel processor.
o A colour monitor with highest 64 bit colour display and with screen resolution 1024
by 768 pixels.
o Keyboard and a scroll mouse.
SOFTWARE REQUIRED:
o Windows 7 operating system
o Ansys 17
PROCEDURE:
Step 1: Ansys Utility Menu
File – clear and start new – do not read file – ok – yes.
Step 3: Preprocessor
Element type – Add/Edit/Delete – Add – Solid – Quad 4 node – 55 – ok– ok – close.
Material Properties – material models – Thermal – Conductivity – Isotropic – KXX – 40
Step 4: Preprocessor:
Modeling – Create – Area – Rectangle – by corners – X, Y, width, height – 0, 0, 10, 20 – ok.
Meshing – mesh – Areas – Mapped – 3 or 4 sided – ok.
Mesh – modify mesh – refine at – lines – pick all – level of refinement – 3 – ok.
Step 5: Preprocessor
Loads – analysis type – new analysis – steady state – ok.
Loads – Define loads – apply – Thermal – Temperature – on Lines – select lines(as per
requirement) – apply– DOFs to be constrained – TEMP – Temp value – (as per requirement)
– ok.
Step 6: Solution
Solve – current LS – ok (Solution is done is displayed) – close.
RESULT
Thus the Thermal analysis on a square plate considering conduction was performed
and the temperature distributions were ________________.
Exercise :
Consider a rectangular block of dimensions 100 * 150 m, coefficient of thermal conductivity is 50.
Neglect a convection, perform a 2D thermal analysis for given block.
