Description
Technical Field

[0002] Currently, in the process of automobile manufacturing, the painting and baking process is an important link to ensure the surface coating performance of body parts. However, during the baking process, due to temperature changes and material property differences, body parts (such as hoods) may warp and deform. Especially under the influence of the expansion and curing of shock-absorbing rubber, the hood often shows irreversible local deformation, which has a greater impact on product quality. Currently, the analysis method for painting and baking deformation usually adopts on-site tests. This method is not only costly and time-consuming, but also requires a large number of molds and toolings for repeated verification and adjustment, making it difficult to meet the requirements of efficient development.
[0003] Due to the lack of comprehensive consideration of material thermal expansion and mechanical behavior during the painting and baking process, it is difficult to effectively predict the deformation area of the hood during temperature changes and the expansion and curing process of shock-absorbing rubber. Further, this method often relies on post-detection and fails to discover potential problems in advance through simulation technology during the design stage, resulting in waste of molds, frequent process adjustments, and a large consumption of human and material resources.

[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the following will further describe the present application in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.
[0034] The following will, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provide a detailed description of a method for simulating the baking deformation of an automotive hood provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 It is a flowchart of a method for simulating the baking deformation of an automotive hood provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the specific steps are as follows:
[0035] Step 101: Extract the CAD digital model of the automotive hood assembly from the three-dimensional modeling software for automotive body design.
[0036] In implementation, the CAD digital model is a digital representation of the geometric and structural information of the automotive hood assembly and is the basic data source for finite element analysis. By extracting the complete digital model from the three-dimensional modeling software, the accuracy of the input data for simulation analysis can be ensured. For example: In the CATIA design software, the hood assembly model can be opened, the export function can be selected, and the CAD digital model of the hood assembly can be saved in the STEP format to a local folder. During the export process, the geometric accuracy of the digital model can be set, such as not less than 0.01 mm, to provide accurate geometric data for subsequent simulation.
[0037] Step 102: Import the digital model into the pre-processing software to generate the part mesh of the automotive hood assembly.
[0038] In implementation, the pre-processing software can discretize the continuous geometric model through mesh generation to generate the elements required for finite element analysis. The size and quality of the mesh directly affect the accuracy and calculation efficiency of the simulation results. For example: The HyperMesh software can be used to import the STEP file generated in Step 101 and perform mesh generation on the digital model of the automotive hood assembly. The specific steps can include setting the mesh type as quadrilateral mesh and the mesh size as 7 mm. Among them, the local complex areas (such as edges or connection parts) are adjusted to 5 mm to improve accuracy. Ensure that the aspect ratio of the mesh does not exceed 5:1 and the twist angle is less than 45°. The mesh file is exported in the.inp format for subsequent simulation.
[0039] Step 103: Import the part mesh into the simulation software.
[0040] In implementation, the simulation software can establish a finite element model by loading the part mesh. The integrity and correctness of the model will directly affect the reliability of the simulation results. For example: The Abaqus simulation software can be used to import the.inp format mesh file generated in Step 102. After loading, check whether there are broken elements or unconnected nodes in the model. Repair the discovered problem elements to ensure the continuity of the model mesh and the correctness of the boundary conditions.
[0041] Step 104: Set the support reference points of the part mesh, the material property parameters of the hood, the property parameters of the damping rubber, and the external loading conditions.
[0042] In implementation, the support reference points can determine the specific positions where the tooling supports the hood during the painting and baking process, simulating the actual tooling support conditions. The material property parameters describe the physical responses of the sheet metal and the damping rubber under mechanical and thermal conditions. The external loading conditions simulate the external force changes that actually occur during the painting and baking process.
[0043] Step 105: Conduct a simulation analysis according to the analysis steps corresponding to the preset painting and baking process to generate a deformation nephogram of the automotive hood assembly affected by temperature changes and the expansion and curing of the damping rubber.
[0044] In implementation, through finite element analysis, simulate the influence of the expansion and curing of the damping rubber on the hood deformation during the painting and baking process, including the deformation under the combined action of temperature gradient, thermal expansion stress, and gravity. The simulation analysis provides quantitative results on the deformation area and its severity, providing a basis for improving the painting process. For example: Set the gravity loading step to apply a gravity field to simulate the influence of the self-weight of the hood under the tooling support conditions. Set the hood to heat up from 25°C to 200°C at a heating rate of 10°C per minute, and then set the hood to cool down from 200°C to 25°C at a cooling rate of 10°C per minute. Start the Abaqus simulation task to analyze the temperature distribution and deformation response over time during the painting and baking process. View the analysis results in the "Visualization" module of Abaqus, generate a deformation nephogram of the automotive hood assembly, record the maximum deformation amount and the main deformation areas, and analyze the specific influence of the expansion and curing of the damping rubber on the hood deformation.
[0045] As an alternative implementation method, the method further includes:
[0046] Export the CAD digital model of the automotive hood assembly to a file format supported by the pre-processing software; convert the part mesh into a format supported by the simulation software.
[0047] In implementation, different preprocessing software has different supported formats for CAD files. Exporting the CAD digital model to a compatible format can avoid data loss or conversion errors and improve the accuracy of mesh generation. Commonly supported file formats include STEP, IGES, and PDGS, etc. For example: In the CATIA 3D modeling software, open the CAD model of the car hood assembly, export it as a STEP file, and export the STEP file to the specified directory. Similarly, different simulation software has different format requirements for mesh files. By converting the mesh file format, the compatibility of the finite element model can be ensured, and errors caused by format problems during simulation operation can be avoided. Commonly supported mesh formats include.inp,.nas, and.cdb, etc. For example: In the HyperMesh preprocessing software, the generated STEP file can be imported, mesh division can be completed, the "Export" function can be selected, and the export format can be set to.inp format in the pop-up window, and the mesh file can be saved in a format supported by the simulation software Abaqus for subsequent simulation analysis.
[0048] As an alternative implementation, the selected range of the mesh size of the part mesh is 5 - 10 mm.
[0049] In implementation, the smaller the mesh size, the closer the result of the simulation analysis is to the actual data, but too small a size can cause the simulation analysis to run for too long. Generally, the mesh size for sheet metal deformation can be selected as 5 - 10 mm.
[0050] As an alternative implementation, the support reference points include the front support point of the hood and the rear support point of the hood.
[0051] In implementation, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a support reference point provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, one support point (such as the leading edge center position 1) at the front end of the car hood and two support points (such as the positions 2 and 3 near the rear of the two sides) at the rear end can be defined, and the support reference points can be set as fixed constraints.
[0052] As an alternative implementation, the material property parameters include the hood material property parameters and the damping rubber property parameters. The hood material property parameters include sheet metal density, sheet metal elastic modulus, sheet metal Poisson's ratio, and sheet metal thermal expansion coefficient;
[0053] The damping rubber property parameters include damping rubber density, damping rubber elastic modulus, damping rubber Poisson's ratio, and damping rubber thermal expansion coefficient.
[0054] In implementation, the sheet metal material property parameters reflect the response behavior of the hood during the painting and baking process when subjected to force and heat. Among them, the sheet metal density is used to calculate the gravitational load, and the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio of the sheet metal can describe the linear elastic deformation characteristics of the sheet metal material. The coefficient of thermal expansion can be used to characterize the dimensional change behavior of the sheet metal material under temperature changes. For example: the sheet metal density can be set to 7.85 g / cm 3 , the elastic modulus of the sheet metal can be set to 210 GPa, the Poisson's ratio of the sheet metal can be set to 0.3, and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the sheet metal can be set to 12×10^-6 / °C. The setting method can be in the Abaqus software, open the "Property" module, select "Material", create a new hood material property, input the above parameters item by item, and name it. The material properties of the damping rubber directly affect its expansion behavior during high-temperature baking. Among them, the damping rubber density is used to calculate the influence of the damping rubber weight on the deformation of the hood, and the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio of the damping rubber can describe its rigidity after curing. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the damping rubber is used to characterize its volume change during the heating process. For example: the damping rubber density can be set to 1.2 g / cm 3 , the elastic modulus of the damping rubber can be set to 2 MPa, the Poisson's ratio of the damping rubber can be set to 0.49, and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the damping rubber can be set to 150×10^-6 / °C. The setting method can be in the Abaqus software, select "Property>Material", create a new damping rubber property, input the above damping rubber characteristic parameters item by item, and name it. It is also possible to assign the defined material properties to the finite element model elements of the hood and the damping rubber to ensure that the physical behaviors of different components in the simulation analysis can be accurately expressed. After the assignment is completed, it is possible to check whether the material assignment covers all corresponding elements and save the model.
[0055] As an alternative implementation, the external loading conditions include gravitational acceleration.
[0056] In implementation, gravity is an important external load that affects the deformation of the automotive hood during the painting and baking process. By applying gravitational acceleration, the stress and deformation distributions of the automotive hood under its own weight can be simulated, and thus its deformation behavior can be predicted more accurately. The commonly used value of gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m / s 2 . For example: in the Abaqus software, enter the "Load" module, select "CreateLoad", the type is "Gravity", select the region "Region" as "WholeModel", so as to specify that the scope of gravitational loading is the entire hood structure, and enter the gravitational acceleration value 9.8 m / s in the "Magnitude" field 2 , save the settings, and check whether the loading conditions are applied correctly.
[0057] As an alternative implementation, the load distribution can be observed through a visualization tool to confirm whether the gravity load covers all model elements. If any abnormalities are found (such as incorrect direction or omitted area), the "Load" module can be returned to adjust the gravity settings.
[0058] As an alternative implementation, the preset analysis steps include a gravity loading step, a heating step, and a cooling step. Among them, the heating step is to raise the automotive hood assembly from a preset first baking temperature to a preset second baking temperature. The cooling step is to lower the automotive hood assembly from the preset second baking temperature to the preset first baking temperature.
[0059] In implementation, in the painting baking simulation, gravity loading is the basic condition. By applying a gravity load, the initial deformation and stress distribution of the automotive hood under its own weight are analyzed. For example: in the Abaqus software, the "Step" module can be selected, a new analysis step "GravityLoadStep" can be created, and the type can be set to "Static,General". The time step can be set to 1 to ensure that other conditions can be connected after this step. The "GravityLoad" condition can be defined, the direction can be selected as the negative Z-axis, and the magnitude can be set to 9.81 m / s 2. Save the settings and run to output the initial stress field and displacement field of the hood under its own weight. The heating step can simulate the working condition of the automotive hood gradually increasing in temperature during the painting and baking process. The temperature increase causes thermal expansion of the sheet metal and damping rubber, and may cause stress concentration and local deformation. For example: In the Abaqus software, a new analysis step "HeatingStep" can be created, with the type "Static,General", the initial temperature set to 25°C, the target temperature set to 200°C, the thermal loading conditions defined, the hood surface selected as the thermal load area, the temperature set to increase linearly with time, run the heating simulation, and output the temperature field and the stress and displacement distributions caused by thermal expansion. The cooling step can simulate the process of the automotive hood cooling from a high temperature to room temperature after baking. During this process, the damping rubber cures, and internal stresses may cause warping deformation or residual stress distribution. For example: In the Abaqus software, a new analysis step "CoolingStep" can be created, with the type "Static,General", the initial temperature set to 200°C, the target temperature set to 25°C, the thermal loading conditions defined, the temperature set to decrease linearly with time, in the "Material" module, ensure that the damping rubber material properties include a curing behavior model to simulate the change in elastic modulus during the temperature decrease process, run the cooling simulation, and output the final displacement contour or residual stress distribution. Through the three analysis steps, the full-process deformation distribution of the hood during the painting and baking process due to gravity, thermal expansion, and damping rubber curing can be obtained. The warping deformation area of the automotive hood during the heating and cooling processes can be analyzed based on the deformation distribution, the key dimension changes can be output, and the painting and baking process or the hood structure design can be adjusted according to the analysis results.
[0060] As an alternative implementation, the preset first baking temperature is 25°C, and the preset second baking temperature is 200°C.
[0061] As an alternative implementation, Figure 2 is a flowchart of an example of a method for simulating the baking deformation of an automotive hood provided by an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0062] Step 201, export the digital model of the automotive hood assembly, export the digital model from the CAD software, and generate a mesh in the pre-processing software (Hyperwork).
[0063] Step 202, import the digital model into the pre-processing software (Hyperwork) and draw a mesh.
[0064] Step 203, import the drawn mesh into the simulation software (abaqus).
[0065] Step 204, define the support reference points for the baking process.
[0066] Step 205: Set characteristic values (related parameters: density, modulus, coefficient of thermal expansion, Poisson's ratio, temperature).
[0067] Step 206: Set the loads, constraints, contacts, and analysis steps applied to the model.
[0068] Step 207: Run the simulation software to conduct a simulation analysis.
[0069] Step 208: Post-process to view the deformation nephogram.
[0070] The embodiment of the present application provides a simulation method for the baking deformation of an automotive hood. The method includes: extracting the CAD digital model of the automotive hood assembly from the three-dimensional modeling software for automotive body design. Importing the digital model into the pre-processing software to generate the part mesh of the automotive hood assembly. Importing the part mesh into the simulation software. Setting the support reference points, material characteristic parameters, and external loading conditions of the automotive hood assembly. Conducting a simulation analysis according to the preset analysis steps to generate the deformation nephogram of the automotive hood assembly varying with temperature. By using the method of the present application, it is possible to predict the warping deformation areas caused by the expansion and curing of the damping rubber and temperature changes through the simulation analysis of the hood baking process, providing data support for optimizing the hood design and painting process in advance. By replacing the actual test with simulation, it is possible to significantly reduce the cycle and cost of sample production and process testing, and at the same time avoid the waste of resources caused by multiple test adjustments. Through the simulation analysis of the material characteristic parameters of the sheet metal and the damping rubber, the influence of different materials on the hood deformation can be evaluated, thereby guiding the selection of better materials and the improvement of the structure. Combining the simulation results of the heating and cooling steps, the temperature curve and heating / cooling rate of the painting process can be optimized, reducing the influence of the process on the shape accuracy of the hood. By simulating the actual working conditions, the probability of accidental deformation during the baking process can be reduced, ensuring the consistency of product quality in mass production. The simulation analysis results can provide a basis for the design of tooling and molds, avoiding repeated modifications caused by design problems and reducing the scrap rate of tooling and molds.
