Abstract

This paper deals with static stress analysis of the Quench tank. The Quenching process is utilized to enhance the hardness and strength of some Automobile and Railway bearing parts. The main objective of this paper is to study the theory behind stress analysis of a quench tank due to storage salt which is the media through which quenching is done. This article uses finite-element analysis to know the stress distribution of a quench tank especially which is designed in rectangular shape. The numerical simulation needs to be carried out to know the required thickness of the plate due to its internal pressure. The stresses developed in this quench tank are analyzed by using ANSYS, a versatile Finite Element Package. Finally the theoretical values and ANSYS values are compared with experimental set up for quench tank analysis. The results can also significantly help in strengthening tank walls to sustain stresses developed due to quenching operation.
