Original Abstract

In a development of a new type of solar absorbers is required to modify an absorption area to the system of pyramidal cavities. It is necessary for higher absorption effect and less dependence on incidence angle of solar radiation. Due to complicated final surface, the hydroforming was chosen as a production technology. This paper deals with numerical simulations of forming operations and an identification of critical areas. Furthermore, the die shape and a weldment - sheet blank optimization are performed. A theoretical simulation of the hydroforming process was carried out by using ANSYS software.
