Simulation of 3D wind tunnel in Ansys Fluent The wind tunnel has played a leading role in aerodynamic performance analysis since the first days of powered flight when the Wright brothers used a wind tunnel to evaluate the lift and…
Simulation of speedboat A speedboat is a boat which is powered by an engine. Some motorboats are fitted with inboard engines, others have an outboard motor installed on the rear, containing the internal combustion engine, the gearbox and the propeller…
Thermal Model of Head Lamp using DO Radiation Model in Ansys Fluent The discrete ordinates (DO) radiation model solves the radiative transfer equation (RTE) for a finite number of discrete solid angles, each associated with a vector direction fixed in…
Turbulent Flow in a Compact Heat Exchanger in Ansys Fluent Compact heat exchangers are used in a great variety of applications. They allow for an increased heat transfer rate, require less volume and weigh less compared to other heat exchanger…
Solving a Conjugate Heat Transfer Problem using Ansys Fluent The contemporary conjugate heat transfer model was developed after computers came into wide use in order to substitute the empirical relation of proportionality of heat flux to temperature difference with heat…
Simulation of Solidification Solidification, also known as freezing, is a phase change of matter that results in the production of a solid. Generally, this occurs when the temperature of a liquid is lowered below its freezing point. Although the freezing…
Simulation of flow and thermal modeling of a headlamp In the theory of radiative transfer, of either thermal or neutron radiation, a position and direction-dependent intensity function is usually sought for the description of the radiation field. The intensity field can in…
Modeling Radiation and Natural Convection Many techniques have been introduced in the past years to improve the efficiency of heat exchange systems involving natural convection and/or forced convection, and with or without phase change. In this area of research, researchers…
Modeling Periodic Flow and Heat Transfer Many industrial applications, such as steam generation in a boiler or air cooling in the coil of an air conditioner, can be modeled as two-dimensional periodic heat flow. This tutorial demonstrates how to set…
Coriolis flow meter in Ansys Fluent In this tutorial, we provide guidelines for modeling and simulation of Coriolis flow meter in Ansys Fluent software. Fluid flow causes a phase shift between the inlet and outlet arms of the meter which…
