Reply To: Remote Displacement for 3D Ball/Sphere (Solid Deformable)

[ashishkumar.gupta]

 

Also, I have only modeled 40° out of 360° ….which is 1 ball with part of IR and OR…. All bodies are free to deform in XY plane....but No deformation & only rotation around Z axis

My ball bearing should Rotate in Ansys Mechanical (Transient) and this will cause Fluid to move in Ansys Fluent (Transient – Sliding Mesh Tech with Dynamic Mesh) —–> 2 way FSI. [Mech – Fluent -System Coupling ]

So my B.C. should be:

Inner Race:  Revolute Joint (Body to Ground ) +1000 RPM

Outer Race:  Revolute Joint (Body to Ground ) -658 RPM

Ball:  Remote Disp. (Rz= Free) around own axis.

Between Ball and Races, there is fluid (in Ansys Fleunt) which will transfer Pressure forces to Mechanical body …..so contact is kept ‘Frictionless’ as there will never be Metal-Metal conatct

Right?
