Two dimensional simulation of gearbox sloshing using ANSYS Fluent I. Overview In the current project, two dimensional simulation of slosh dynamics within a gearbox, consisting of two rotating spur gears, is performed using ANSYS Fluent. Such simulations are often performed in the industry to determine if all the gear teeth…

Analysis of flow over a backward facing step (I) Geometry and Mesh For the current project, the computational domain is divided into five blocks. This is done to implement mesh grading near the walls in a convenient manner. In order to perform 2D analysis of the problem using openFoam, a dimension of 1 mm is considered…

Simulation of flow through a pipe using OpenFoam part - II Given: The following information is available before starting the current project: 1. Physical description of the problem: (i) Diameter of the pipe, `D=0.01m`. (ii) Reynolds number of the flow based on the pipe diameter and the uniform inlet velocity, `Re_D=2100`.…

In the current project, flow over a circular cylinder is analyzed, using both steady state and transient approaches, in ANSYS Fluent. The goal is: (a) To simulate von Karman vortex street, which is an unsteady phenomenon that occurs during the laminar flow regime (at certain Reynolds numbers) causing repeated patterns…
