Finite Element Analysis Of Various Type Of Drainage Cover On Different Materials Approach

The main problems often encountered for the use of drain covers are heavy, easily damaged and failed structures, not withstanding high pressure and deformation. In this project, the objective to be achieved is to analyze the maximum failure potential for fiber glass (S-Glass), stainless steel, high carbon steel and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), to make observations of the position area it is possible to fail on the design, to study the static loads imposed on the design and to obtain the appropriate material type for drainage cover. The methods adopted are the use of SOL1DWORKS® as a design application and Ansys as an application to analyze data. The finite element analysis used is a type of static structure. The analytical data released are related to shape change, deformation path and equivalent pressure. There are four types of materials selected namely fiberglass, stainless steel, high carbon steel, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). In addition, it has three designs selected namely flat surface drainage cover, square hole drainage cover and circle hole drainage cover. It turns out that high carbon steels an, flat surface drainage cover designs have low deformation values and equivalei pressures. Thus, it directly makes high carbon steel and flat surface drainage cos design to be the best in terms of acceptance of shape change and equivalent pressure.
