Compound bellows compensator-axis and transverse stiffness values
Thread Content
Are the axial and lateral stiffness values provided for the compound bellows compensator in the product catalog the axial and lateral stiffness values of the overall compensator, or the axial and lateral stiffness values of a single wave? If it is the axial and lateral stiffness values of the overall compensator, then how do the axial and lateral stiffness values of a single wave be obtained in C2, and how are they converted into a single wave? Thanks for the advice.
When simulating bellows in C2, the overall transverse and axial stiffness is required. No conversion required. And the overall stiffness and the stiffness of a single wave are not linearly related. . . . So if you really need it, you have to ask the manufacturer. The stiffness provided in the sample is the overall stiffness of the bellows.
When simulating a complex compound compensator in C2, how are the values in a single wave given? Thanks for the advice~:handshake
