You would have visually experienced turbulent flow of a fluid by simply opening the tap in your kitchen. The fluid flow will follow an unruly nature once you increase the flow. This is a simple example. Turbulent flows can have negative effects on your product when it flows through air. If you take the example of your car, having highly turbulent flow in certain regions can lead to sources of noise generation and can also affect the performance of your car. Through CFD simulations, it has been made possible to capture this turbulent phenomena to better design your product. In this video, you will

An air compressor is a common turbomachinery component with a large number of moving parts. It is quite difficult to model the entire component. Hence, we will take a sector of the component and apply a periodic boundary condition to the geometry. We will use the FLUENT Console to employ periodic zones in the simulation. In this video, you will
Noise is generated by an aerodynamic body when it is moving through air. The shape of the body determines the sources that generate this noise. For a car, the mirrors, gaps between the wheels etc are regions of noise generation. Manufacturers use CAA( Computational Aero-Acoustics) to study such sources and minimise the discomfort caused by it to the customer. In this video, you will
The broadband acoustic solver is one of the CAA methodologies mentioned in the previous section. In this video, we will use the broadband solver to analyse the noise sources over an Ahmed Body.
