CFD-04. Fire and Smoke Evacuation Simulation

Concentración de humos en un garaje

In this fourth post on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) we are going to study the evacuation of smoke in a garage when a vehicle bursts into flames. For this fire simulation case we will use the Fire Dynamics Simulator software together with the BlenderFDS add-on that allows us to use the Blender software for the […]

CFD-03. Vortex shedding. Transient Analysis.

Resultados de una simulación CFD transitoria

In this third post related to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) we will look at a classic example of transient analysis: vortex shedding in the wake of a cylinder. We will again use Acusolve solver with its pre-processor, Hyperworks CFD. We are going to study the flow around a cylinder with a Reynolds number close to […]

CFD-02. Acusolve Workflow. Basic Tutorial and Interface.

In this second entry related to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) we will use a simple example to illustrate the working method and the fundamental concepts of this type of simulations. We will use the Acusolve solver together with its pre-processor, Hyperworks CFD. The case study is a mixing elbow. We have a main cold water […]

CFD-01. COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS. INTRODUCTION

Today we are going to start a series of posts related to Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD, addressing simple and introductory concepts as well as advanced topics based on the ICEMM’s experience in real engineering problems. For those people, who have not had any previous contact with this technology, the Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD, is the […]
