Impeller Stresses and Details

 

Enables the user to select materials and calculate impeller stresses.

Warnings are displayed if the calculated stress exceeds the permitted stress for the material and if the starting time is excessive.

See also : Stress Calculations and natural Frequencies

It is possible to ignore these warnings and proceed further but it is not recommended to manufacture fans that have excessive stress levels.

Thicknesses for the different materials are stored in the database so it should not be possible to select a material with a thickness that is not readily available.
