Application of ANSYS to Pressure Vessel Structure Optimization Design

Xiaofei Li

Abstract

In this paper,the ANSYS parametric design language(APDL) and the optimization design process with ANSYS software are introduced. A pressure vessel is optimized for the structure design with Combining APDL programming and ANSYS optimization design module and the ANSYS optimum result is satisfactory,which shows that the ANSYS optimization design programming based on FEA is effective and feasible in pressure vessel structure design and the improvement of design precision and design efficiency.
