Abstract

The estimation of the lifetime of high pressure and high frequency loaded components by testing is very costly and time-consuming. The simulation of fatigue life is an important design step in the fast moving and competitive automotive industry, where the steady rise of engineering components and the demand for lightweight construction concurred with enhanced reliability require an optimized dimensioning process. The paper presents the chosen problems of 3D numerical strength and fatigue simulation of a rotary screw compressor of a liquid cooler. The presented results of the FEM mechanical calculation based on a real components. The fatigue analysis were executed using the criterion of critical plane. Local multi-axial state of stresses and deformation has been calculated based on Hooke’s law with simultaneous consideration of kinematics hardening rule of material according to Jiang’s model.
