1. Introduction

The objective of this tutorial is to provide the user with average/advanced knowledge of the tools, concepts and use of the “Clockwork” software application. To do this, we will work on a guide that will cover such essentials as the proper use of the software.

This example describes the necessary steps to conduct a response analysis of a foundation excited by a rotating machine. The analysis of the piston (or reciprocating) machine will take place in Annex A, changing only the items “Machine” and “Forces”.

It will detail the input of the geometry using the “Design view” as well as the input of the machines on the foundation, definition and allocation of soil parameters and applied forces.

The software possesses tools which will be described throughout the development of the example and reference images will be used where necessary.

Throughout this tutorial, tips/details are framed in relation to the item in which they work.

Finally, we remind the user that this tutorial is accompanied by a help manual which describes forms and detailed features and tools. It is accessed from the help menu, in the toolbar.

To enter the mass of the “Condenser” follow the same steps described above. However, now select a cylindrical geometric form as the envelope surface of the machine, the orientation of its rotator axis, length and radius.

The orientation of the cylinder is modified by clicking on the button “Rotate to”. This way, the new direction is reflected graphically in the design view (if the machine button is enabled) and also in the side properties tab “Cylinder at Y Direction”.

2.2.3 Forces As mentioned in the preceding paragraph for this example further information is not available regarding the dynamic forces produced by the machine (Steam Turbine). Next, use formulas provided by recognized standards, such as ACI351, ASA/ANSI S2.19 and DIN4024 for conservative approximations of the value of these forces.

Pressing the button “Forces by formula applied at centers of gravity” from the menu “Machine”, shows the window of Fig. 2.2.30.

Fig. 2.2.30 – Machine” Form

The software provides four well known formulas:

1. Machine unbalance provided by the manufacturer 2. Machine unbalance meeting industry criteria 3. Dynamic load determined from an empirical formula 4. Machine unbalance by DIN4024

Fig. 2.2.31 – Forces Form. Provides formulas from international standards that allow calculation of dynamic forces applied at the selected center of gravity.

For the example, the employed formula is “Dynamic Loads determined from an empirical formula”. (Fig. 2.2.32)

Fig. 2.2.32 – Dynamic loads determined from an empirical formula

To obtain the approximate force, first add one rotor, pressing the up arrow in the “Segments of the rotor” section, then select the “turbine” center of gravity from the “Rotor center of gravity” column. Finally, in the “Select formula” column we choose the formula “Dynamic loads determined from an empirical formula”.

How masses and dynamical forces are entered.

Type of Mass Description Restriction

Foundation Mass

Is automatically calculated when creating the foundation model using the concrete specific weight.

Other Masses

Use the “Add New Mass” button (Fig. 2.2.15) to insert masses. Masses are considered uniform inside the envelope shape.

Masses with Forces

Use the “Center of Gravity” button (Fig 2.2.24) when: - Mass represents the

rotor mass when forces are to be calculated in rotation machines

Rotatory machines only

- Mass represents the total machine when forces are to be calculated.

How dynamical forces are entered in ClockWork.

Type of Force Description Restriction

Forces determined from formula applied at Centers of Gravity

From the machine form these forces are calculated from formulas and assigned to the assigned centers of gravity.

Given forces to be applied at bearing points

Forces given by the machine data sheet are assigned at bearings. The machine envelope is created if not entered before.

Given forces to be applied at a “Force Point”

General method for entering any force in

Using “Forces applied at bearing points” from the machine form.

2.3.1 Natural frequencies

To obtain the natural frequencies of the model, it is necessary to provide, as a minimum requirement, the foundation geometry, the machine mass, and soil parameters. Access to this option is possible through the toolbar “Analysis →Results → Vibration Modes”.

Fig. 2.3.3 –“Natural Frequencies” Toolbar

Fig. 2.3.4 –“Natural Frequencies” form

On Fig. 2.3.4, the natural frequencies of the first six degrees of freedom of the model are indicated.

Natural Frequencies

Page 37: Clockwork - Machine Foundation Software - User Manual

37

2.3.2 Natural Frequency Range You can obtain natural frequencies for a range of values of shear modulus, by using the “Shear Modulus Range” option, from the menu “Analysis →Results →Shear Modulus Range” (Fig. 2.3.5)

Fig. 2.3.5 – Access menu, “Shear Modulus Range”

Fig. 2.3.6 –“Shear Modulus Range” form

When you first open the form, the fields “G min”, “G max” and “Step” are filled automatically. The calculation of these default values is made by multiplying the shear modulus provided (Fig. 2.2.42) by “0.5” and “1.5”, for “G min” and “G max” respectively. Changing these values is permitted.
