Abstract
AbstractThe modelling of the coiling process involves a mechanical model of the dynamic system that consists of the rotating coiling drum and the axially and transversally moving strip. Due to the coiling a change of mass in the system takes place. For such a variable mass system a control volume concept has to be introduced in order to get the equations of motion of the dynamic system with variable parameters. A Runge Kutta time integration algorithm is applied to compute the solution. It is assumed that the outer radius of the coiling drum increases linear with the rotation angle. The bending deflection of the shaft results from an inhomogeneous temperature distribution within the coiled material on the coiling drum. Two different boundary conditions of the moving strip have been considered and it is demonstrated that the thermal deflection of the drum has a high influence upon the fluctuation of the strip force. For a given geometry and strip speed we obtain a critical thermal deflection where the minimum strip tension force is zero. (© 2011 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
