    This document provides an overview of using COULOMB software to simulate insulators using the Boundary Element Method (BEM). It outlines the steps to build an insulator model based on CAD drawings, assign materials, apply boundary conditions, mesh the model, solve it, and analyze the results. Key steps include designing the insulator geometry, assigning appropriate materials, setting solver parameters, solving the model, and using various plotting techniques to analyze fields and locate regions of high stress. The overall process is described from building the initial model to obtaining and evaluating the simulation results.

    Quick Start
    For

    Beginners

    Presentation
    Overview
    The presentataion potraites the brief
    description of design procedure for simulation
    of insulators in COULOMB by (BEM) Boundary
    Element Method and extract the results out of
    it.

    COULOMB
    Home page

    Click on the coulomb icon button and


    jump on to home page

    Make sure hardware key in place.

    Building
    Of
    Insulator Model
    Take the reference of CAD
    drawing of insulator.
    Plot points as per the
    drawing and design the
    insulator with input
    dimensions from CAD and
    check for healing of the
    surfaces.
    Note : At this point we are done with basic
    design of the insulator , so it is a good idea

    VERIFICATION
    (Units & View Settings)

    The units and view settings are adjusted


    as per requirement

    Post adjustment of settings click OK.

    2D To 3D

    Then the design is moved from 2D modelling to the


    3D space

    Selection of
    Surfaces
    Select the surfaces to be sweeped.
    Once the surfaces are selected then
    move on to sweeping of the model

    Sweepin
    g
    (2D to 3D)

    Now circular sweep is applied


    for 360 degrees
    to the 2D model
    Note : sweep shortcut icon is
    highlighetd
    with red colour box

    Material
    assignment

    Material
    assignment cntd..,
    Sequence of steps to be followed to assign
    material to design model
    1) Select the volume for which you need to assign
    material characteristics.
    2) Go to physics on the geometry tool bar and select
    the Material Table option.
    3) Select the appropriate material and click on
    ASSIGN option.

    Material
    assignment cntd..,

    The properties of the physical


    elements can be edited in material
    mannager window shown is the
    permittivity of SiR

    Then the boundary condition of voltage (uniform) is given


    to the model at the hardware and end fitting volumes

    Assigning of

    Elements
    2D triangular elements
    are assigned on the surface

    Solver
    Setup ?
    The solver settings are done to choose solver
    type and accuracy
    Also the physics global
    settings are setup

    Solver Setup
    cntd...,
    Tweaking of the mesh and other properties
    can be done here

    Solving the Model


    After these tweaks the model can be solved

    Analysing the
    Results
    1) Analyzing the results after solving

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,
    Selecting value at point

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,

    Similarly other values are plotted with using


    segments and other

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,

    The result graph


    obtained

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,
    To find clear location where the graph was
    obtained can be by using other plotting
    techniques

    Analysing the Results cntd.....,

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,

    Setting a required user range to understand


    where the field increased from the critical
    value

    Analysing the
    Results cntd.....,
    So the region where the highest field stress is
    present is found out
