CFD Analysis of Airfoils with Rotating Cylinder forWind Turbines

Chapter 1    Introduction Mankind is harvesting energy from natural resources for centuries. There are a lot of means of generating energy from renewable sources out of which Wind is one of the primary sources. Over the years a number of researches have been conducted to increase the efficiency of Wind turbines…

Aim: Simulation of Combustion using ANSYS Fluent Objective: Part I Perform a combustion simulation on the combustor model and plot the variation of the mass fraction of the different species’ in the simulation using line probes at different locations of the combustor as shown in Fig. You need to plot for CO2, H2O,…

  AIM: CHALLENGE FOR GATE VALVE SIMULATION Gate Valve: A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve that opens by lifting a barrier (gate) out of the path of the fluid. Gate valves require very little space along the pipe axis and hardly restrict the flow of fluid when the gate is fully opened. The gate faces…

Aim:- To perform analysis on cyclone separator and calculate the separation efficiency and pressure drop. Objective:- To write a few words about any four empirical models used to calculate the cyclone separator efficiency.  To perform an analysis on a given cyclone separator model by varying the particle diameter from 1 μm to 5 μm and…

Aim: To perform a CHT analysis on a graphic card. Introduction: A CHT (Conjugate Heat Transfer) analysis is useful where there are multiple modes of heat transfer in our computational domain, like conduction and convection. Having such a great number of applications for this type of simulation makes it important to be…

Rayleigh-Taylor Instability Analysis. Two fluids of different densities superposed over each other (or accelerated towards each other); the instability of the plane interface between the two fluids, when it occurs, is called the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. In the context of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, there are two…

Title: To perform Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) Analysis with Exhaust Port Simulation. Introduction  Conjugate heat transfer (CHT) analysis is generally used when there is temperature variation during heating or cooling in the material due to the interaction between solid and fluid phases. It is the combination…

Title: Performing a Grid dependency test on an Ahmed body and compare the results. Introduction The aim of this project is to simulate the Ahmed body for the Grid dependency, hence to see the effect of mesh sizing on the result of velocity and pressure distribution around the Ahmed Body. Ahmed Body: It is a Generic Car…

Title: Simulation of flow over a cylinder with the help of AnsysFluent. Introduction In this project, we are simulating the flow of fluid over a cylinder at different Reynold numbers with a steady and unsteady solver. Change in value of Reynold number would be done by a change in the value of viscosity at constant…

Title: Steady-state simulations of Mixing Tee pipe with the help of AnsysFluent. 1. Introduction         Mixing Tee is used to perform effective mixing of two fluid, to achieve certain conditions of Temperature and velocity at the outlet of the pipe. For example Air conditioning of a room to attain…
