Hello,
We have Cosmos Express and are using the package to verifytheplate will be able to retain 3 pressurized sample valves.The sample valves will have a fairly continuous 166 lbs offorcebehind each one of them or 500 lbs total. There will be 3 31610-32stainless FHCS fastening the plate to the manifold.
I've run cosmos on the plate, attached, in u-shape and flatformwith mixed results. What I don't understand is that eventhoughunder the load options I have lbs force selected cosmos spitstheresults out in pressure. How can I get cosmos to display iftheforce I entered is going to deform the plate or not?
Also, what does the 'Deformation Scale' number equate to?
Obviously I'm green in FEM, FOS and Cosmos, so, any helpordirection is appreciated!
Thanks!
