Stress Analysis of Air-conditioning Branch Pipe Based on Fluid-structure Coupling
Based on the ANSYS Workbench analysis platform,the fluid-structure coupling calculation method was used to analyze the fracture of the air-conditioning branch pipe,with the discussion of the velocity distribution of the 410A Freon flow field,the deformation and equivalent stress distribution of the air-conditioning branch pipe were analyzed,and tress analysis and strength evaluation were carried out at the crack-occuring location.The results show that the maximum equivalent stress of the branch pipe of the air conditioner,located at the root of the cracked tee pipe,is 305.2 MPa,and the primary stress of the branch pipe where the crack occurs is higher than the allowable value.
