Problem:
The figure illustrates the connection of a cylinder head to a pressure vessel using 10 bolts and a confined-gasket seal. The effective sealing diameter is 150 mm. Other dimensions are A = 100, B = 200, C = 300, D = 20, and E = 25, all in millimeters. The cylinder head is used to store gas at a static pressure of 6 Mpa. ISO class 8.8 bolts with a diameter of 12 mm have been selected. This provides an acceptable bolt spacing. Find the stress in the bolts after the pretension load is applied and then again after the external load is applied. In the model use At as the diameter of the bolts across the entire length of the bolt.

Tutorial Overview
This tutorial is divided into six parts: 1) Tutorial Basics 2) Problem Planning 3) Preprocessing 4) Solution 5) Post-Processing 6) Hand Calculations
Audience
This tutorial assumes an intermediate knowledge of ANSYS 8.0; therefore, it goes into moderate detail to explain each step. A problem planning section has been added to help set up the problem. More advanced ANSYS 8.0 users should be able to complete this tutorial fairly quickly.
Prerequisites
1) ANSYS 8.0 in house Structural Tutorial 2) Completion of three or more Basic Machine Design Tutorials
Objectives
1) Use a pretension mesh in ANSYS to apply the bolt preload 2) Solve for the preload stress in the bolt 3) Apply external loads to the bolt joint 4) Solve for the final stress in the bolt
Outcomes
1) Learn how to set up the problem before starting Ansys 2) Increase familiarity with the graphical user interface (GUI) 3) Learn how to create and mesh more complex geometries 4) Increase familiarity with post processing tools
Example:
Italics
Some basic ANSYS functions are: To rotate the models use Ctrl and MB3. To zoom use Ctrl and MB2 and move the mouse up and down. To translate the models use Ctrl and MB1.
Volume 4: Bottom Material Layer Outer Radius: .03 Inner Radius: .0065 Z1: 0 Z2: .025 Starting angle: 0 Ending angle: 180 Volume 5: Top Material Layer Outer Radius: .03 Inner Radius: .0065 Z1: .025 Z2: .045 Starting angle: 0 Ending angle: 180 Your model should appear similar to the one shown to the right. 7) Glue all the volumes together. > Preprocessor > Modeling > Operate > Booleans > Glue > Volumes > Pick All 8) Compress the model numbering. The NUMCMP command compresses out unused item numbers by renumbering all the items, beginning with one and continuing throughout the model. > Main Menu> Preprocessor > Numbering Ctrls > Compress Numbers > All Replot the volumes if necessary.
