Theoretical modelling and simulation analysis of the thermal performance of a steel-basalt fiber polymer concrete machine tool joint surface.

The thermal performance of a steel-basalt fiber polymer concrete machine tool joint surface has a key influence on a machine tool. Based on virtual material theory, the equivalent thermal model was established and the thermal performance parameters of virtual materials were deduced by theoretical calculation. The calculation method of actual contact area ratio of steel — basalt fiber polymer concrete joint surface was established based on discrete principle and its accuracy was verified. To determine the influence of preload pressure on the actual contact area ratio, a prediction model was established. The thermal conductivity of the material was measured by the quasi-steady state method. A new systematic simulation analysis method that synthesizes virtual material theory and finite element simulation analysis was proposed, and its accuracy was verified. The results show that the relative error is only 5.01%, which proves the method's effectiveness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
