Question regarding the bolt constraints at the ends of the tie rods of the Caesar2 compensator
Thread Content
For example, in a large tie rod lateral compensator, rigid rods 100-102 and 101-103 are created at both ends of the bellows; a rigid rod 201-202 is also made. A node connection 102CNode201 is established to constrain Z, X, and Y, while a node connection 103CNode202 is created to constrain -Z, X, and Y. The constraints of node 102(201) or 103(202) should be relative to the piping system and move along with it; wouldn’t applying such constraints result in spatial constraints? Please give some advice.
It’s so quiet; the expert doesn’t bother to give guidance……
This setting is fine; what needs attention is the temperature of the pull rod.
It’s a post from such a long time ago; back then I didn’t know why I got stuck on that idea and asked such a question. Looking at it now, I realize it wasn’t really a problem at all
