pressure distribution to nodal loads
pressure distribution to nodal loads
(OP)
Dear all,
conversion of Pressure distribution to FE nodal loads is a huge work and to do it manually is time consuming ,if it involves lot number of load cases. Is there any program available to convert pressure distribution to FE nodal loads.Kindly can anyone refer. Thank you in advance.

RE: pressure distribution to nodal loads
at least once the FEA mesh is created and set, then it isn't That hard to allocate pressure to the nodes ... do one case then all the rest should be copies, no? ... load on a line of nodes is the pressure summed over a set area ... project the FEA mesh onto the pressure surface.
guess it depends on how the CFD exports it's results.
but then i'd've thought (again) that most pre-processors could discretise a pressure distribution ...

or you can map to each node, and apply a nodal load (instead of an element pressure)
