Description
Summary:The paper provides a comparative analysis of the influence of ring concentrator shape in ultrasonic systems on their amplitude-frequency characteristics. Devices are known in which elastic elements are used either as resonators or as working tools of ultrasonic technological systems. However, the use of elastic elements as concentrators of ultrasonic vibrations is insufficiently studied and requires comprehensive research and development of recommendations for their practical application. For this purpose, a theoretical analysis has been carried out in the paper while using the ANSYS computer program, which made it possible to perform modal and harmonic analysis of ring models with various shapes. The round ring has a nominal outer diameter of  50 mm and a variable cross-section. Three ring  models  have  been  analyzed:  one  round  model and two models of oval shape. To conduct a comparative analysis and identify frequencies at which resonance occurs, the vibration characteristics of the rings have been considered in the frequency range from 1 to 26 kHz. Results of the analysis show that, depending on the frequency of  forced vibrations, bending vibrations are formed in the rings, which act in different coordinate planes. In this case, a change in the shape of the rings is accompanied by a change in the amplitude of the bending vibrations. The most intense ring vibrations along the vertical axis have been achieved in circular rings. It has been found that with an increase in the frequency of forced oscillations, an increase in the number of oscillation periods is observed. If in the region of low vibration frequencies only a one-period vibration mode is formed in the ring, then in the region of ultrasonic vibrations the number of vibration periods increases to two and three. All the considered ring models have several natural vibration frequencies with a certain periodicity in different coordinate planes depending on the shape of the rings. The intensity of the vibrations is different in different directions and depends on the shape and frequency of the forced vibrations. Examples of vibration mode variations for various ring shapes are demonstrated in the paper.
