Trends in the Development of Machinery and Associated Technology ” TMT 2013 , Istanbul , Turkey , 10-11 September 2013 GEOMETRIC MODELING AND SIMULATION OF BUTTERFLY VALVE
Design process is basically the information process, because starting from the idea, performed using the data and knowledge, and ends with information about how to object to look and what behavior is expected during operation. Also, used and processed a large amount of data, which is a perfect area for the application of computers. This paper presents basic principles of computer-aided design using an example of butterfly valve. Modelling was performed with CAD/CAM/CAE software package CATIA V5. Geometric modeling of parts and assembly of butterfly valve was performed in Sketcher, Part Design Assembly Design and kinematic analysis was performed in DMU kinematics module.
