Abstract
The article discusses the possibility of modeling the stress-strain state (SSS) of the connection of the metal butt with the composite cylindrical part of the blade using the specialized ANSYS software application and its Composite PrepPost module. Created connection models in ANSYS environment. The optimal designs for connecting the metal butt and composite material have been determined. For a simplified calculation of the connection strength, only the influence of the centrifugal force arising during operation of the screw is taken into account. In the ANSYS software package, a static load of the connection was carried out, which makes it possible to evaluate the nature of the stress distribution in the connection. A butt model and a finite element connection mesh were created. For the calculation, the characteristics of the materials of the blade elements are given. To determine a rational structural-power connection scheme, varying parameters were selected: the number of rows of spikes along the radius, the number of spike belts and the arrangement of the butt spikes. The dependence of the voltage in the composite part of the connection on the arrangement of the butt spikes was obtained. The shape and length of the spike were analyzed. The dependence of voltage on the radius of curvature of the tenon was obtained. The stress-strain state of a tenon-rounded flange is shown in ANSYS. The dependences of voltage on the length of the spike were obtained. The calculation showed that the length of the tenon L has a significant effect on the strength characteristics of the connection between the flange and the composite layer. To determine the rational position of the stud, a calculation was carried out in the ANSYS environment with a shift of all rows of studs by the amount K from the extreme position in engagement with the composite layer and a change in the linear order of the studs to a staggered one. The results of the calculation in the ANSYS environment are presented as a dependence of stress on the displacement K. A flange model is presented, where the stud arrangement is staggered, and the result of the stress calculation in the ANSYS environment. The calculation showed that changing the order of the studs from linear to staggered reduces the maximum stress to 385 MPa. The hydraulic pressure tests confirmed the calculation results. The simulation results showed a significant improvement in the mechanical performance of the joints with minimal design costs.
