Abstract

Recently, researchers developing battery charging for electric motorcycles with a swap system. This article aims to determine the value of deformation and equivalent stress of each material from the frame of the swap outlet in accepting the load from the battery, battery storage compartment, and other components. In this study, the Finite Element Analysis method was used to determine the ability of the swap frame structure to withstand the load is received. The connections between member structures are expressed in the form of joint nodes with a total of 141 joint nodes with six nodes at the bottom of the membership structure considered fixed. The swap-outlet's solid CAD design discretization process into small elements for analysis is carried out using the beam meshing type. The swap-outlet's meshing is divided into 1255 elements and 1251 nodes. The simulation results show that the value of deformation and stress for aluminum material is the lowest but still within the safe limits of the material. For this reason, the results of this simulation can be used as consideration in decisions making for manufacturers in the design and fabricating of battery exchange outlets.
