How to find the natural frequency in ansys apdl

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on modeling a rotor dynamic study in ANSYS APDL for a high-speed rotating shaft with two discs. Key parameters include disc diameters of 0.28m and 0.35m, a shaft diameter of 0.05m, and a length of 1.5m. The material properties specified are a modulus of elasticity of 211 GN/m², a modulus of rigidity of 81.2 GN/m², and a density of 7800 kg/m³. The user is experiencing discrepancies between simulation results and theoretical predictions, indicating potential issues in the modeling phase.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of rotor dynamics and finite element analysis (FEA)
  • Familiarity with ANSYS APDL software
  • Knowledge of material properties and their implications in simulations
  • Basic principles of dynamic modeling and simulation validation
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Modeling bearings in ANSYS APDL" for accurate representation of support structures
  • Explore "Setting up rotor dynamics simulations in ANSYS" for best practices
  • Learn about "Validation techniques for FEA results" to ensure accuracy
  • Investigate "Common pitfalls in ANSYS modeling" to troubleshoot discrepancies
USEFUL FOR

Mechanical engineers, M.Tech students specializing in FEA, and professionals involved in rotor dynamics simulations will benefit from this discussion.

Hi! I am new in ansys. I am doing rotor dynamic study of a high speed rotating shaft. the shaft comprise of two discs and at the it ends the shaft is supported by the bearing I am facing problem in modelling stage please tell me how to model the bearing and disc briefly.I am uploading the image and these are the dimension.Please Do reply.

Diameter of disc 1 = 0.28m
Diameter of disc 2 = 0.35m
Diameter of shaft = 0.05m
Length of the shaft = 1.5m
Thickness of disc 1, disk 2 = 0.07m
Modulus of Elasticity = 211 GN/m^2
Modulus of Rigidity = 81.2 GN/m^2
Density = 7800 kg/m^3
Speed = 4000 rpm
Bearing stiffness = 1 MN/m

It isn't realistic to expect an online forum to teach you how to use a complex program like ANSYS, there are just too many considerations. Are you taking a class in FEA and its usage? Have you found any tutorial materials regarding setting up a rotor dynamics simulation in ANSYS?

I am a M.Tech student and yes i have taken the FEM classes and i am using ansys help as a tutorial and I am using APDL but there is problem in the modelling phase the results are not matching with the theoretical result pls help me.
