Carburization and Quenching of a Steel Gear
Application ID: 78061
This model shows how to simulate carburization and quenching of a steel gear. Diffusion of carbon into the surface of the gear affects the onset of martensitic transformation. Residual stresses are computed, and it is shown that high residual compressive stresses appear at the root of the gear.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
- COMSOL Multiphysics® and
- 金属プロセスモジュール and
- either the ジオメカニクスモジュール, or 非線形構造材料モジュール and
- either the MEMS モジュール, or 構造力学モジュール
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the 製品仕様一覧 and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
