Abstract

This paper deals with the analysis of swing check valve for determining the stress values in the disc element by using Finite element technique package called ANSYS. The two major components considered for FEA analysis is the disc and the arm assembly. The drawback of the existing valves gives a feedback of failure occurring at the end of disc which is hub end, some customer give feedback that its yields above the allowable stress values. Hence a design modification is created for four cases, and an optimal design is obtained in case 4, where working stress values are less than the allowable stress values, hence the future failures is avoided because of this FEA analysis.
