Abstract

Stamping-welded torque converter as the research object had been analyzed on the strength by fluid structure interaction (FSI) based on spring smoothing dynamic mesh. The results indicate that the deformation and stress is slightly fluctuating with time. Because of the hydraulic impact, the location of max deformation of turbine locate on the inlet of blade and the max stress locate on the connection of blade and shell. Deformation and stress show an inverse trend with the speed of turbine. Pump has a lower deformation on the outlet and deformation occurs mainly in the export of the blade, in which the stress distribution is more uniform.
