Finite Element Analysis and Testing of Ladle Turret’s Supporting Arm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Objective: To establish a finite element model for ladle turret’s supporting arm. Verify the accuracy of finite element analysis, and accurate information cause of crack. Methods: Use ANSYS finite element analysis software to perform a solution of the supporting arm at loaded full ladle . By mean of strain measuements ,impact coefficient was obtained,and presents an analytical study of static strength of the supporting arm. Result:The greater the load is, the smaller the impact factor is. Verify the accuracy of the finite element method by on-site response test. Accordingly, it improves the supporting arm on the structure by effective basis.
