Stress Analysis and Structure Optimization of Integral Toothed Quick Opening Autoclave
In this paper,making use of ANSYS finite element analysis technology establish the finite ele-ment model of the integral toothed quick-opening structure was implemented,and its structural strength was analyzed and the fatigue life was evaluated.In addition,having the total mass of the structure taken as the objective function was implemented to optimize and analyze autoclave's quick-opening seal structure,in-cluding having variables like the thickness of clamp's upper ring tooth T1,that of the flat cap's head tooth T2,that of the clamp's cylinder T3,and the length of the clamp's upper ring tooth L1,and that of the flat cap's head tooth L2 selected as the design variables,the maximum stress value,the maximum displace-ment value and the total mass of the fast opening structure for the dependent variables.The lightweight analysis indicates that,the optimized quick-opening mass is 2921.9 kg,a 16.5%lower than that before the optimization.
