Description

Shock Wave in a Supersonic Airflow with Transient Solver, ANSYS Fluent CFD Simulation Training

The problem is to simulate the supersonic airflow encountered by a two-way oblique airfoil barrier passing through a channel. So, we investigate fluid behavior and create a Shock Wave phenomenon by ANSYS Fluent software. We perform this CFD project and investigate it by CFD analysis.

The airflow in the simulation environment around the obstacles and canals has a temperature of 129.46 Kelvin and a Mach number of 2.49. The airflow direction is generally assumed to be in the same direction.

Mach number is a non-dimensional number that indicates the ratio of fluid velocity to sound velocity in the same fluid. This number is usually used when the velocity of the fluid flow is close to the sound velocity or more, and one of the major uses is aerospace applications.

We design the present 3-D model using the Design Modeler software. Then we mesh the present model using ANSYS Meshing software. The mesh type is unstructured, and the element number is 4466857.

Shik Wave Methodology

We use the Density-Based solver to define the compressible flow. In the shocking phenomenon, the airflow is considered quite compressible, and the Mach number is significantly high. It should be noted that the present problem is done in an unsteady state.

Shock Wave Conclusion

After the solution process is complete, we obtain two-dimensional and three-dimensional contours of pressure, temperature, velocity, density, and Mach number, as well as two-dimensional and three-dimensional pathlines.

We obtain the resulting contours and pathlines in the final second of the unsteady simulation process.

The results show that the shock is well formed. The shock occurred when the current collided with the sharp points of the geometry, and the Mach number changed abruptly. Pressure changes in the shock formation areas of the contours are evident.

    I’m fascinated by the simulation of shock wave formation in supersonic airflow. What specific challenges are associated with meshing for such high-speed fluid simulations?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      Meshing for high-speed fluid simulations, such as the simulation of shock waves in supersonic airflow, involves several challenges. Quality and density of the mesh must be sufficient to capture the steep gradients and discontinuities like shocks. A finer mesh is typically required in areas where shock waves are expected to ensure accuracy of the results. Additionally, maintaining a balance between mesh resolution and computational resources is crucial to perform an efficient simulation.

    Is it possible to use the same simulation setup for other types of barriers, such as a ramp or a wedge, instead of a two-way oblique airfoil? If so, would the simulation treat the different geometries the same or would adjustments need to be made?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      In principle, you can use a similar simulation setup for other types of barriers, such as a ramp or a wedge; however, adjustments would typically be essential to accommodate differences in geometry. These changes could involve modifications to the boundary layers settings, mesh refinement near critical areas, and validation of appropriate flow conditions that accurately represent interactions specific to the new shapes of the barriers.

    What is the significance of using a Density-Based solver in this simulation, and could a Pressure-Based solver be used instead for shock-wave phenomena?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      The Density-Based solver is specifically designed for flows where density changes are significant, such as shock waves in supersonic flow regimes. Unlike the Pressure-Based solver, the Density-Based solver can capture the rapid density changes due to shock waves more accurately, which is crucial for a precise analysis of supersonic flows. While a Pressure-Based solver can be employed in some compressible flow simulations, it is generally less accurate for high-speed flows involving shocks. Its use in such cases might require special settings and considerations.

  16. Avatar Of Prof. Berneice Stanton Phd

    Prof. Berneice Stanton PhD

    What type of solver did you use—the Density-Based or Pressure-Based solver—and why was it the most suitable one for this simulation?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      For this simulation, the Density-Based solver was used because it is well-suited for capturing the high-speed compressible flows that are characteristic of shock wave phenomena. Its capability to handle significant density changes within the flow field makes it ideal for tracking discontinuities like shock waves resulting from supersonic flow interactions with airfoil barriers.

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      To ensure accuracy of the shock wave simulation, fine meshing near the obstacle and in areas where sharp gradients are expected is implemented. The Density-Based solver is chosen specifically for capturing compressible, high-speed flow effectively. Time-stepping is carefully controlled to capture the transient nature of the shock wave formation accurately. Also, verification of the results with expected physical phenomena and convergence checks are integral steps to confirm accuracy.

    I’m fascinated by the shock wave phenomenon captured in this simulation. Could you explain what happens to the pressure and temperature across the shock wave? How do they change on moving from subsonic to supersonic conditions across the shock wave?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      In the simulation of the shock wave, when airflow transitions from subsonic to supersonic across the shock, there’s a sudden increase in pressure and temperature. Essentially, the kinetic energy of the fast-moving air is converted into thermal energy, leading to these increments. As the air passes through the shock wave, the Mach number drops below 1, indicating a change from supersonic to subsonic conditions. The airflow also decelerates, and its dynamic pressure is converted into static pressure, leading to the observed changes.
