CFD simulation with moving elements
In a conventional CFD simulation, the domain is divided into small control volumes. When an object within that fluid moves (e.g., a piston or valve), the original mesh no longer matches the original boundaries of the domain. However, these situations are very common in processes and products, so CFD simulations with moving elements represent an […]
CFD and multiphysics simulation of industrial processes
Improving industrial processes is a constant goal in industry. Companies devote considerable effort to optimizing efficiency and reducing production costs and times. In this regard, simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and other computational techniques has become a tool of great interest for the design and improvement of processes in various sectors. From the storage […]
CFD simulation in Data Center design
Data Processing Centres, also called Data Centers, are environmentally controlled facilities dedicated to the storage and processing of large-scale data. As critical infrastructures, their security requirements are increasing. Within the design and operational requirements, the air management part plays a key role. Today’s IT equipment reaches very high power ratings, and the proper arrangement of […]
HVAC simulation using CFD. Tutorial with Sc-Stream.
In this post we will show an example of a simulation of an HVAC system using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). In the example we will analyse an enclosure with some internal elements, as can be seen in the image. We will compare a fan heater system with an underfloor heating system. We will show the […]
