ANSYS Workbench, CREO 2.0, companion flange.
A companion flange is a flange that corresponds to another flange. Companion Flanges can be supplied as assemblies with Universal Drive shafts. The objective of this paper is to design and analyze a companion flange for torque transmission. This work deals with the replacement of carbon steel material companion flange with a stainless steel companion flange. The modeling of the companion flange assembly was done using CREO software. The Companion flange is modeled and simulation using ANSYS 15 Software. The design optimization also showed significant potential improvement in the performance of Companion Flange. In the present work an attempt has been made to estimate the deflection and stresses under subjected loads using FEA. The finite element analysis procedure required in ANSYS simulation is present as a predefine process to obtain accurate results.
