FEA Analysis on Motor Support Assembly of Window Air Conditioner

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze and optimize the motor support assembly of the window air conditioner. The redesigned motor support assembly is the combination of multiple parts of the existing product. In the motor support assembly, motor support base part is optimized to reduce the weight of the component with maximum stiffness for the applied loads and constraints. The CAD model of motor support assembly is performed using Creo parametric 2.0. The static stress analysis is performed for the assembly using Autodesk fusion 360 software. The shape optimization of the motor support base is performed using Autodesk fusion 360 software. The outcome of the research is to reduce the weight of the product with maximum strength for the given loads and constraints.
