Flow Simulation through a hollow pipe

Aim : To perform an analysis simulating the bending of an iphone.   Section A : Steps involved for setting up the simulation 1. Model adjustment        The above model was first imported in the ansys structural and was loaded in spaceclaim to be edited. By using the merge faces in the repair section,…

Aim : The aim of this challenge was to perform a simulation of a sphere pressing on a plate. Materials Used : Structural steel for sphere and Non-Linear structural steel for the plate.   Methodology : Displacing the sphere downwards towards the plate for 4 mm and retracting it. The model consist of a quarter of the…

I performed this analysis to simulate the bending of a wire with three different non-linear materials; copper alloy, aluminium alloy and magnesium alloy and find out the equivalent von-mises stress and equivalent strain acting on the wire alone for each of the three cases.   The first figure above represents the model…

In this review, I simulated the rolling operation on a workpiece made of copper material. For performing this simulation, the workpiece material was edited in spaceclaim. The length of the worpiece was increased by 60 mm and both the sides of the workpiece was decreased by 8 mm.       For performing the…

Verification of weld joints with different materials.         In this particular challenge I performed an analysis on the model above with different weld materials for the pupose of differentiation. The connection type for the plates and the ribs were given as frictional with a frictional coefficient…

Aim - To perform a static structural analysis on a Railwheel and track setup. Purpose : Case 1 - Comparison of the results of the simulation with two different loads i.e 100000 N and 500000 N. Case 2 - Compare the Ansys result of the Total deformation for the load of 100000 N with the User defined result.   Section…

Section 1 : Grid Dependency We know that simulations ought to be performed on different types of components based on their respective functionality and also that these components come in varrying cross-sections. Hence performing simulations on such components with the same element size and meshing type will not provide…

In this challenge I made a 3D model of a centrifugal and ran a flow simulation. The model was designed as per the dimensions and steps mentioned in the tutorial video. The outlet was set to environmental pressure and a velocity between the range 10-20 m/s was flown in the pump. The 3D model and the cut of the centrifugal…

In this simulation, I stimulated a flow through a flowbench with a velocity of 150 m/s. The modelling of the flowbench was done by first extruding a circle of radius 0.05 m upto a height of 0.1 m. Then a sweep of a bent wireframe of diameter 0.025 m and bent radius 0.04 m was made which was then shelled with a thickness…

In this project I stimulated an air flow simulation over a NACA0017 airfoil with attack angles 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 to compare the lift and drag forces generated in these cases. A mesh refinement of 3 is used on the surface of the airfoil over which a flow of 600 m/s passes. The flow through time in all the simulations…

I performed a flow simulation on a pipe of 0.04 m outer diameter and a wall thickness of 0.001m at room temperature of 20 C and the length of the pipe was 1 m. The simulation consisted of three cases wherein the reynolds number at the inlet were taken as 100, 1000 & 10000 respectively and the fluid taken was water.…

In this project I stimulated a flow of Air at room temperature of 20 C over a cylinder of 0.05 m diameter and length of 0.1 m at different reynolds number. This stimulation showed the behaviour and reaction of the flow of air when it\'s passed over a cylinder at different velocities.  For that purpose we first need…
