Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the meshing process proposed in the above public documents is only for a specific geometric structure. Even if the same ideas and methods are used, it is difficult to successfully apply to other more complex geometries. Moreover, whether the divided mesh can meet the node correspondence, whether Can be imported into the software for calculation is still to be discussed

Abstract

The invention discloses a structured mesh generation method for threaded pipe internal channel finite element analysis, which comprises the following steps: judging the tooth type of threaded teeth of a threaded pipe internal channel, and determining the number N of the threaded teeth; if the tooth type of the threaded teeth is a triangular tooth, and N is smaller than or equal to 12, performing grid division on the two-dimensional circulation section of the threaded pipe based on the Y-Block thought; if the tooth type of the threaded teeth is a triangular tooth, and N is greater than 12, performing grid division on the two-dimensional circulation section of the threaded pipe by adopting an O-Block-based idea; if the thread teeth are trapezoidal teeth or M-shaped teeth, performing grid division on the two-dimensional circulation cross section of the threaded pipe based on the idea of multiple dicing; generating a two-dimensional circulation cross section grid; and rotating and stretching the two-dimensional circulation section grid to generate a volume grid which is equal to an internal channel of the threaded pipe in size. According to the invention, the internal channel of the complex threaded pipe is divided by adopting the structured hexahedral mesh, the complex geometrical characteristics of the threaded pipe can be better captured, the mesh quality is high, and the mesh number is small.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of grid generation for finite element analysis, and in particular relates to a structured grid division method for finite element analysis of threaded pipes. Background technique [0002] With the further improvement of threaded tube processing technology, a lot of research and development have been made on threaded tube heat exchange technology. Currently, threaded tubes are widely used in heat exchange equipment such as air-conditioning evaporators and condensers. Compared with the traditional smooth tube, the internal surface area per unit length of the threaded tube is 1.5-2 times that of the ordinary smooth copper tube, which has the advantages of high heat transfer efficiency, not easy to scale, small size, and material saving. However, due to the irregular structure of the threaded pipe, its internal flow also has complex unstable characteristics, and the distribution of temperature, velocity and pres...
