Abstract

In this paper a Laundry WashingMachine drum and a shaft is built and analyzed in ANSYS.The aim is to help the machine designer to design a machine for conducting similar analysis for future manufacturing of high capacity drums and high load carrying shafts by reducing experimentation. The analysis is mainly concerned with an evenly distributed load on the drum and the stresses developed on the drum and also the stresses induced in the shaft. The load is applied with the help of lead plates instead of clothes. The three dimensional modelof the drum and shaft is created using CATIA software. The model is imported to ANSYS Workbench 14.5, where the boundary conditions, loads and constraints are given and analysis is made.
