Abstract

This study employs the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method to conduct tests on bimetallic materials composed of aluminum and brass by passing the current at one end of the bimetal strips. Bimetallic have properties that are not present in their individual metal constituents. Through centrifugal casting, a bimetal with different compositions of aluminum and brass was generated for simulation. The electric resistance test evaluates a material's ability to resist the flow of electric current and correspondingly the deformation of the bimetal strips due to different coefficients of thermal expansion was studied. The results reveal that an increase in aluminum content leads to decreased temperature and heat generation due to aluminum's higher thermal conductivity compared to brass. As a consequence, bimetals with higher aluminum content experience less deformation under the same load. The analysis is crucial for optimizing the design of bimetallic components for various applications. ANSYS Workbench proves to lead a correct study, offering detailed investigation of the bimetal's behavior under different conditions. The findings provide a proper knowledge of simulation of the bimetal's performance, showcasing the significance of finite element analysis in engineering and design processes.
