I wanted to ask is ACCS (Ansys Composite Cure Simulation) tool only for curing. What if we cool the composite? Will we use the ACCS tool for cooling?
Actually I cooled the composite from 120 to 20 degree Celsius and looking for thermal stresses using ACP -> Transient thermal -> Transient Structural analysis module but it is not showing any stresses (Zero Stresses). What is the possible reason of no stresses.
I will be really thankful fro your response.
Dear Mr. Iftekhar,
I am also new to the ACCS. The curing of composites includes temperature rampup, dwell and cooling. The curing pattern can be setup in transient thermal. You may need to simulate the whole curing process and then only focus on the stress developped during cooling.
Thanks my understanding so far. Hopefully it helps.
