Introduction
• FTT utilizes ANSYS to perform structural and thermal
analyses
• FTT upgrades to newly available ANSYS versions
periodically depending on the overall improvements
over older versions
• One of the main reasons to upgrade is due to the lack
of support from ANSYS over older versions so it is
only practical to upgrade
• Before upgrading, it would be valuable for a
verification process to take place that checks key
features and capabilities along with comparison to
older versions

Methodology
• Full fluid network as appropriate
• Aero BCs are fictitious (Not
controlled/proprietary)
• Secondary flows estimated on %G1C basis
(% of engine compressor inlet flow)
• HTCs applied using order-of-magnitude
rule of thumb (i.e. not actually calculated)
• Steady State (SS) and Transient Analysis

Success Criteria
• Post-processing will assume that the baseline version 14.5 (to which the new version 17.2 is being compared) is entirely reliable
• Check transient time selection– Plot both time points
– Compare Oscillation limit (OSLM) for all timepointswhich express the stability of results
• Success if OSLM < 1
• Failure if OSLM > 1 for more than 1 second
• Run Macro– Compares all nodal temperatures at timepoints as
defined by baseline analysis (i.e. if timepoints aren’t identical, new transient thermals will be interpolated)
– Writes out maximum ΔTemp vs time• Success [ΔT<1]; failure [ΔT>1]
• If criteria not met, investigate

Macro Creation
• Created a macro to be read into ANSYS that would apply all necessary BC’s
and solve transiently/SS
• Coded in ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL)
• Used *dim command to create several tables to define all BC’s with respect to
time
– Flow rate
– Upstream temperature to all entry fluid nodes
– Heat generation on the fluid nodes and bearing
– Bulk temperature and HTC values to all locations where SURF151 and
SURF152 were implemented
– Speed in rad/s for the different time intervals
• Created arrays to state when to run transiently or SS for a total of 9 load steps
• All BCs are parameterized to change linearly b/w load steps by ANSYS
• ADP values at 20,000 RPM and standard/min values at 0 RPM

Macro Creation
• A Do-Loop is utilized to define every BC
accordingly to whether Transient or SS
solution type is selected
• A variable “curtime” was defined to be the
current runtime, which linked every BC with
respect to that current time to then be
applied to all mentioned parameters
• Most real constants related to FLUID116
and SURF151/152 are defined in the loop

and swirl factorsApproved for Public Release

• Ambient temperature, Cp, and HTC would be changing with time
• This means that “τ” has to be updated with time as well
• Temperature-dependent metal and air properties were inputted into ANSYS
• Biot # < 1; Lump capacitance is assumed to see how well calculations match

ANSYS Error Encounter
• 1D SS hand calculation was attempted within the bleed section of the
model, but calculations did not match ANSYS
• Too few fluid nodes were utilized to capture the large temperature gradient
in that area
• More fluid nodes would better capture large temperature gradients
• This was taken into account, and the project continued as-is
• Comparison of ANSYS versions is still valid
• For the purpose of checking SS 1D hand calculations without permanently
changing the initial BCs placed on the model; the bleed section was
temporarily modified where…– Radiation was omitted from the outer casing
– Inlet flow temperature to the flow path was reduced to 1000°F
– Top section exposed to ambient was modeled as adiabatic
– flow rate was increased from 0.03 lbm/s to 0.3 lbm/s
• Calculations proved to be within a couple of degrees from ANSYS thermal
output

*NOTE* Heat network was
modeled to show intended heat
flow, but due to the adiabatic
conditions applied on “E”; it
seems that temperature slightly
decreases downward as no
heat can theoretically escape
from “E”

Post Processing Results
• A 2nd macro was created to gather all temperatures of every node in the
model at all time steps creating a 21,067 x 387 array
• Temperature data is gathered for both ANSYS versions 14.5 and 17.2
• A 3rd macro is utilized to calculate maximum ΔTemp and to output
corresponding node and time at which it occurs
• Maximum ΔTemp = 0.135 °F
• Oscillation limit generally remained < 0.5 most of the time
• Low numbers represent better stability of the output results

Conclusion
• Verification test for 2D model was
deemed successful
– Max ΔTemp = 0.135 °F < 1 °F
– OSLM remained < 1 for most times
– OSLM > 1 for longest duration < 0.1
seconds
• Future verifications should be easy to do
by running all 3 Macros to the same
model of future ANSYS versionsApproved for Public Release
