Week 9- Unsteady moving zones Approach
- Simulate the motion of blades in a generic turbomachinery component using an unsteady approach.
- Assume blade rotation at 300rpm
- Choose an appropriate time step for the simulation and generate an animation file for the rotation.
Answer
AIM: To simulate the motion of blades in a generic turbomachinery component using an unsteady approach.
OBJECTIVE:
- Assume blade rotation at 300rpm
- Choose an appropriate time step for the simulation and generate an animation file for the rotation.
For the first, import the mesh file to fluent as shown below.
Setting the cell zone for rotating_frame
and also make every body as fluid.
enabling the frame motion
Setting the Boundary Conditions, making some zone as interface, since the fluid needs to pass through it.
Making the Inlet as Pressure inlet
Adjusting the airfoil to Moving Wall type and making its motion type rotational.
Setting up the mesh interface.

CONCLUSION:
- Hence the simulation of the motion blades in a generic turbomachinery component using an unsteady approach is done.
