Tribo-X inside ANSYS

With the integration of the Tribo-X journal bearing module into ANSYS Workbench, in cooperation with CADFEM, the Tribo-X inside ANSYS extension has been developed, which allows the convenient calculation of lubricated journal bearings with ANSYS Mechanical. The description of the geometry and load of the bearing is parametric in the Workbench project tree. The parameterization enables automated sensitivity and optimization analyzes of the bearing. These analyzes can be supported by ANSYS DesignXplorer or ANSYS optiSLang.

Highlights:

• integration of the journal bearing module of Tribo-X in ANSYS Workbench
• short calculation times due to high performance of the Tribo-X solver
• consideration of elastic deformations of the bearing and the bearing environment with ANSYS Mechanical
• determination of speed-dependent stiffness and damping coefficients for rotordynamic analyzes
• parametric workflow from CAD to calculation
• automated parameter studies for sensitivity and optimization analyzes possible
