CFD-modeling in design and research of pneumatic and hydraulic percussion tools

Authors: Rechkin A A

The article presents a brief critical analysis of methods currently in use in design and research of pneumatic and hydraulic percussion tools for mining and construction. These me thods are somewhat limited in reliability of modeling data produced. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is described in short. The application of CFD methods in design and research of pneumatic and hydraulic percussion tools is justified as these techniques offer the fullest and most accurate description of the processes running in these devices. The case-study of a 2D nonstationary simulation of piston travel in a pneumatic percussion tool in the environment Ansys Fluent demonstrates advantages of this method in acquisition of information about physical processes which take place when the impact piston moves in the machine in comparison with physical and one-dimensional modeling. The obtained stationary solution of the problem is an initial solution for the nonstationary formulation. The time and space distributions of physical parameters, the displacement diagrams and the velocity curves of the impact piston are obtained. The patterns of pressure, density, velocity vectors, temperature, Reynolds number and Mach number at a certain time are presented.

Keywords: Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD, percussion machines, design, simulation model, dynamic grids, grid model, elastic valve, nonstationary processes.
