3D Finite Element Analysis of Marine Diesel Engine Connecting Rod

Abstract:

In this paper, with the ANSYS, stress distribution and safety factor of marine diesel engine connecting rod were analyzed by using 3D finite element method. The results show that the position of maximum principal stress is transition location of small end and connecting rod shank at maximum stretch condition. The value of stress is 24.69 MPa in dangerous position. The position of maximum principal stress is transition location of small end and connecting rod shank at maximum stretch condition. The value of stress is 198.65 MPa in dangerous position. Safety factor is 2.51.
