Abstract

In this manuscript, various analyses were performed such as the structural and thermal using Fusion 360 software. I designed the model of an LPG Gas Stove to perform the analyses. Firstly, I have done the structural analysis to know the effects of loads on the physical structure of my model and its components, it is performed to know the maximum loads that the model can with stand. And obtained the values of Displacement, Von Mises Stress, strain etc. Also, I have done the thermal analysis to measure the effects of temperature fluctuations on the model and attained the thermal stress values of Temperature, thermal gradient, heat flux etc. And concluded that the LPG Gas Stove model is feasible. The model was designed in Fusion 360.
