Isogeometric Analysis of Pipe System in Nuclear Power Plant
View through CrossRef
The security of pipe system is an important problem in nuclear power plant. The displacement field and vibration frequency of the pipeline system under given loads and displacement boundary conditions are calculated with isogeometric analysis. Comparisons with commercial softwares are given to prove its effectiveness. In isogeometric analysis the non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) basis functions are used to accurately describe the geometry of pipeline, which can be imported directly from the geometry model designed by computer aided design (CAD) tools for numerical analysis. The quarter bend pipes are described precisely with only limited control points and the approximation by straight line elements in finite element method based simulation is replaced. Present simulation with isogeometric analysis can simplify the modelling process of pipeline system and improve the efficiency of the simulation with great accuracy.
