Induction Heat Treatment for an Automotive Crankshaft: Large Scale Modelling with Moving Inductors

Article Preview

Abstract:

A numerical model for a multiphysics problem is presented. It includes the movement of subdomains, which are embedded in a global air domain. The description of the movement is based on a discrete level set representation of the moving boundaries. It is based on the original geometry of the moving tools, such that the mesh quality is not reduced in subsequent time steps.
