FEM modelling methodology - Opis:
- Strength of the propellers with the skewback greater than 25º has to be numerically analysed according to marine classification societies. The finite element method (FEM) is advised for that kind of calculations. Classical and typical propellers (skewback < 25º) may be designed on the base of empirical equations given by the societies. The minimal thickness of the propeller blade is determined by the equations. Each classification society has their own empirical formula. Sometimes, well-designed propeller for one society has not enough strength according to the other society. What is more, propellers designed according to the empirical formulas might be not optimal. Comparative analysis of the marine propeller’s blade strength has been described in the article. Calculations of the propeller’s blade thickness have been done by two international classification societies’ empirical formulas (ABS and DNV). The results have been compared with Finite Element Method calculations (NASTRAN program). The methodology of propeller static strength vibration analyses is presented. Numerical calculation methodology is based on solidstate mechanics with loadings determined by fluid mechanics calculations. Steady state and transient fluid flow of the propeller’s working conditions were taken into account. In order to determine the optimal modelling method of the propeller several different numerical models were compared, including free model of whole propeller and single blade with boundary conditions placed in the foot. The propeller optimization was the main target of the analyses. Propeller blade thickness might be reduced after FEM method analysis - the propeller mass saving can be achieved.
