Fluid-Solid Coupling Analysis on Aquatics Hub Cutter

Abstract:

Hub cutter is a new kind of plant cutters with a good capability of anti-blocking and stability of operating performance. Hub cutter was simulated by using Coupled FEA/CFD analysis in order to get the hydrodynamic pressure value , static pressure and natural frequency. The results show that the change of hydrodynamic pressure on the hub cutter is large. Furthermore, the static pressure was measured focusing on both ends of the aquatics hub cutter. It provides a theoretical basis for designing hub cutters. The study shows that it is feasible to use Coupled FEA/CFD analysis results to predict the performance of hub cutter. This method can be applied in engineering practice and is an innovative design with coupled FEA/CFD analysis.
