Project 1 : CFD Meshing for Tesla Cyber Truck

Project 1 : CFD Meshing for Tesla Cyber Truck

Aim:To perform CFD Meshing for Tesla Cyber Truck.

Objectives:

  1. To check and solve all geometrical errors
  2. To assign appropriate PIDs.
  3. To perform meshing with the suitable Target length and element Quality criteria.
  4. Wind tunnel

Procedures:

  • Open the given model in asna

  • After doing topo for the whole model we can get actual single con

  • Check the geometry and do necessery topo cleanup.

  • Create PIDs

Surface meshing:

  • set different quality criteria for each PIDs as follows:skewness 0.7
PIDs max length(mm) min length(mm) target length(mm)
transparent roof 5 2 4
windows 5 0.5 3
light 5 0.5 3
rims and wheel 5 0.5 3
body 7 0.5 7

freeze other PIDs except body

  • Creation of wind tunnel:

The measurment for wind tunnels are as follows:

  • Consider length of car as X
  • Keep wind tunnel at 500 mm distance from bottom of car
  • Length of wind tunnel from front of car should be 4X
  • Length of wind tunnel from back of car should be 6X,
  • Height of wind tunnel should be 3X

Measure the length of the car:X=5700 mm(approx)

Creation of point ,curve and surfaces:

Creation of new PID s for wind tunnel:

  • top surface and base surface given permiter length and macros as 100 mm ,20mm respectively.
  • side surfaces must be assigned geometric spacing

top :target length 100mm

min and max length:80 mm,120 mm

base :target length 20mm

min and max length:15 mm,25mm

Volumetric mesh:

  • Performed autodetect:

  • required volume:

  • Delete unwanted volume and perform remesh.

Learning outcomes:

  • topo clean up
  • surface mesh
  • quality criteria
  • target length
  • wind tunnel creation
  • voumetric mesh

Results:

  • 1 unmeshed after deleting unwanted volume.
  • we have to perform remesh to solve this.

Conclusion:

Repeated changes have to make to get the desired cfd meshing.Remeshing has to be performed to see te final outcome.Cfd meshing is performed upto performing surface mesh to Wind tunnel surfaces.
