Finite Element Analysis and Optimum Design of Octagon Horizontal Type Vacuum Tank

Article Preview

Abstract:

Finite element model for octagon horizontal type vacuum tank was constructed based on the CAD/CAE software SolidWorks. The strength and stiffness of vacuum tank were analyzed. In order to optimize the size of vacuum tank stiffeners by the FEM and optimal design module, the optimization models were constructed, which have the minimized mass as the objective function subjected to the stress and displacement constraints. The results of optimal design were applied to actual production.
