Aim- To model a mass spring damper system and design a PID controller to adjust the force applied to the mass so that its position can track a reference signal. Introduction- The project involves obtaining the transfer function of the system, analyzing its response characteristics, and designing a PID controller using…

Objective: The objective of the project is to read the given data from an excel file and interpolate it in the range -17.3:0.1:0.9. After interpolation plot the graph of interpolated data and write the data in a text file.  Code:   v=xlsread('VI.xlsx','Sheet1','A2:A25');         …

Aim: To set up transient shock tube simulation. Introduction: The shock tube is an instrument used to replicate and direct blast waves at a sensor or model in order to simulate actual explosions and their effects usually on a smaller scale. They are also used to study combustion and chemical kinetics at high temperatures…

Aim: To set up flow simulation through a pipe for studying conjugate heat transfer. Introduction: Conjugate Heat Transfer: Heat transfer is an exchange of thermal energies between two bodies at different temperatures. this rate is directly proportional to the temperature difference between these two bodies.  Conjugate…

Aim: To perform simulation of the Prandtl Meyer shock problem. 1) Boundary conditions used for shock flow problems: i)Neumann boundary conditions: It is the Second type Boundary condition or The Neumann boundary condition define the value of a normal derivative of a function on the surface. dy/dn = f(t).The normal…

Aim: To set up a steady-state simulation of flow over a throttle body. Procedure:  To create / import geometry:  1) click on file > import > import STL then select the path of .STL file to be imported and click import.  2) After importing geometry delete the thickness and seal the ends. To delete…

Aim: To set up channel flow simulation over a backward-facing step in three different mesh sizes 1) 2e-3m 2) 1.5e-3m 3) 1e-3m.  Theory:     Fluid enters the channel through the narrow passage as it is flowing through the passage the velocity profile is parabolic but when the fluid enters the region where…
