Comments
- surf_IDex must be defined using segments associated with 4-nodes or 3-nodes shell elements (possibly void elements).
- The volume must be closed and the normals must be oriented outwards.
- Abscissa scale factors
are used to transform abscissa units in airbag functions, for
example:
(1) Where, t is the time.
For example, if your input data is in [ms], but you need a data in [s], you could set Ascale to 0.001.(2) Where, p is the pressure.
- Initial pressure is set to Pext.
- Initial thermodynamic
equilibrium is written at time zero
(Iequi =0)
or at beginning of jetting (Iequi
=1), based on the following equation with respect to the volume
at time zero, or the volume at beginning of jetting:
where, M0 is the mass of gas initially filling the airbag, Mi is the molar mass of the gas initially filling the airbag, and R is the gas constant depending on the units system.
(3) - Ratio of specific heats
at constant pressure per mass unit
cpi of the gas initially
filling the airbag is quadratic versus temperature:
(4) - Gas constant at initial
temperature
i must be related to specific
heat per mass unit at initial temperature and molar mass of the gas initially
filling the airbag with respect to the following relation:
(5) Where, Mi is the molar mass of the gas initially filling the airbag, and R is the gas constant depending on the units system.(6) - The characteristics of the gas initially filling the airbag must be defined (no default) and must be equal for each communicating airbag.
- If i = 0, the characteristics of the gas initially filling the airbag are set to the characteristics of the gas provided by the first injector.
- Ratio of specific
heats at constant pressure per mass unit
cpi of the gas is quadratic
with regard to the temperature:
(7) - Gas constant at
initial temperature
must be related to specific heat per mass unit at initial
temperature and molar mass of the with respect to the following
relation:
(8) Where,- M
- Molar mass of the gas
- R
- Gas constant depending on the units system
(9) - If jetting is used, an
additional
Pjet pressure is applied to
each element of the airbag:
(10) - With
being the normalized vector between the
projection of the center of the element upon segment (node_ID1 and node_ID3) and the center of
the element;
the angle between vectors
MN2 and
(in degrees),
is the distance between the center of the element and
its projection upon segment (node_ID1 and node_ID3).The projection of a point upon segment (node_ID1 and node_ID3) is defined as the projection of the point in direction MN2 upon the line (node_ID1 and node_ID3) if it lies inside the segment (node_ID1 and node_ID3). If this is not the case, the projection of the point upon segment (node_ID1 and node_ID3) is defined as the closest node node_ID1 or node_ID3.
with M between N1 and N3
- If node_ID3 = 0, node_ID3 is set to node_ID1 and the dihedral shape is reduced to a conical shape.
- If
fct_IDV = 0:
isenthalpic outflow is assumed, else Chemkin model is used and outflow velocity
is:
(11) - Isenthalpic model
Venting or the expulsion of gas from the volume, is assumed to be isenthalpic.
The flow is also assumed to be unshocked, coming from a large reservoir and through a small orifice with effective surface area, A.
Conservation of enthalpy leads to velocity, u, at the vent hole. The Bernouilli equation is then written as:
(monitored volume) (vent hole)
Applying the adiabatic conditions:
(monitored volume) (vent hole)
Where, P is the pressure of gas into the airbag and is the density of gas into the airbag.
Therefore, the exit velocity is given by:(12) For supersonic flows the outlet velocity is determined as described in 10.4.4.1 of the Theory Manual.
The mass out flow rate is given by:(13) The energy flow rate is given by:(14) Where, V is the airbag volume and E is the internal energy of gas into the airbag.
- Chemkin model
(15) Where, is the density of the gas within the airbag.
- Isenthalpic model
- Vent holes surface is
computed as follows:
(16) (17) with impacted surface:(18) and non-impacted surface:(19) Where for each element e of the vent holes surf_IDv, nc(e) means the number of impacted nodes among the n(e) nodes defining the element.
- Functions fct_IDt' and fct_IDP' are assumed to be equal to 1, if they are not specified (null identifier).
- Function fct_IDA' is assumed as the fct_IDA'(A) = A, if it is not specified.
- In order to use porosity during contact, flag IBAG must be set to 1 in the interfaces concerned (Line 3 of interface Type 5 and Type 7). If not, the nodes impacted into the interface are not considered as impacted nodes in the previous formula for Aimpacted and Anon_impacted.
- When defining venting,
there are some limitations concerning the definition of airbag surface and surface venting:
- The airbag external surface should be built only from shells and 3-nodes shell elements.
- The airbag external surface can not be defined with option /SURF/SEG (or with option /SURF/SURF if a sub-surface is defined with option /SURF/SEG).
- Same restriction applies to vent hole surface.
- Shells and 3-nodes shell elements included in vent hole surface have to also be included in external surface.
- Vent hole membrane is deflated if T > Tvent or if the pressure exceeds Pdef during more than .
