Hi all
As part of an internship, I am required to calculate the temperature evolution due to friction between rotating parts.
I don't really see how to do it under SW 2014.
I tried to go through the movement study but no way to get out of the temperatures.
Here I try with the thermal simulation but I don't see how to take into account the friction between parts.
Thank you for your help;)

Hello
As shown here:
http://www.solidworks.com/sw/docs/thermal_2010_ENG_FINAL.pdf
On page 18:
"Deformation analysis of a composite bearing-housing" :
"This requires a combination of steady-state thermal and static analyses"
So a priori you need 2 successive analyses.
Thank you for this quick response.
But from what I understand from the document, it is a question of calculating the deformations due to temperatures.
I try to calculate the temperatures due to friction due to a rotation. A static analysis would not, I think, allow me to simulate this rotation.
Indeed, I got a little lost.
According to this link, this is not possible with SolidWorks Simulation:

Oh dear )=
Thanks for the help;)

But otherwise, how can a friction study be properly defined in motion analysis?
I have one piece that rotates and another that is fixed and rubs against the first.
How do you get the frictional force between these two parts? Should I define contacts between the parts or just leave the defined constraints to the assembly?
You put your contact between rooms. You define the materials and/or friction coef.
You launch the analysis of mvt.
And then you recover the results/forces/frictional forces.
On the other hand for the temperature... cf answer from .pl
Hello
This is what I applied but I only come out of the zero frictional forces.
I even tried to apply a friction coefficient equal to 1, which should cause the second part to rotate because of the motor that drives the first one but nothing happens.
