Ansys Fluent: Power And Torque Calculations On A Simple Turbine

[@Cytryna1-i8f]

Hello, at 12:32 you already have 3 definitions. Can you please tell me what did you chose in these sections? And I guess you defined max velocity in it, that's why I'm getting only zeros in plots

[@DeepakGupta-hk9vn]

Thanks a lot for the new tutorial. Your tutorials are helping me a lot. For the past few days, I am trying to simulate the motion and residence of solid particles (mean dia = 0.1 mm, density 200 kg/m3) around a spherical bubble in a cylinder (2D planar, vertical). Water flows from the inlet (velocity =1m/s) with outlet maintained at pressure outlet. Solid particles should be injected from the inlet side. I have used the DPM model and run the case for 5 secs. But I am finding it difficult to get the result. If you could make a tutorial on this, it would be a great help for me. Thanks.

[@fluentsetup1232]

I'll keep it in mind, but given time restrictions I can't make any promises.

Hello! How did you define 0.25 m/s in Omega (rad/s)? How did you define moment of inertia?

[@kayerellebarrete4324]

Sir, can you help us how to plot power coefficient and TSR values?

hi,you can calculate average cm and with tsr plot cp against tsr

Have you already got the answer? :') I have a trouble with it

[@ali18871]

Power units in W or in kW ?? Because 1.5W don’t make any sense for the turbine ?

[@m.s.sakib2205]

It would be great if u had a voice explaination about what r doing and a small brief to do sot

[@ahmetozkan2803]

Hi, I was watching your video and at the 13:57 mark, I noticed the omega value calculation. Could you please explain how you derived the formula “Omega=V_max[m/s]/0.25[m]”? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you!

[@ManuVM-q9y]

The radius of the turbine is 0.25 and as we know, velocity = omega * radius. Its just back calculation

[@giwrgoslepipas4041]

Hi, thanks for the great video! Could you possible make a savonius simulation inside a pipe? and derive power graphs and power coefficient graphs with RPM? That would be a huge help. There is a gap in existing videos! And it is very important for me and other people I guess. It would be really life saving and a good addition for this amazing channel

[@jeevanselvarajah1147]

How would you plot the Power coefficient against the Tip speed ratio? Is there a way to gather TSR results from Ansys?

[@magicalad1517]

Sir could you please help me to plot Cp vs TSR graph

[@mahditayyebi8148]

Thank u veryyyyyyyyy much sir for the great video But i have one question In cant find the contact-region-src and contact-region-trg And i don't know where i mistake🤔 I design the geometry in solidworks Can you please help me to solve the problem?🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹

[@oly100goals]

did you solve this?

[@patrickalb.1238]

I had the same problem, and fixed it when selecting an analysis type 2D in the geometry properties. 3:52. For geometries exported from Solidworks, you need to translate the geometry to the XY plane in DesignModeler.

[@shashiyadav2064]

sir can you do the same calculation for 2 blade savonius turbine?

[@김정빈일반대학원기계]

The video is really helpful to me. I wonder why you give 0.015 to the moment of Inertia. Is it just abitrary value or calculated value?

[@praveenchowhan3900]

Very good video sir, How to plot Power coefficient VS tip speed ratio sir?

[@lofichildd]

Hello sir, I'm one of your KZbin followers. I'm currently facing an issue in running a simulation of a Savonius wind turbine. I'm working on my thesis which needs to be completed, and I'm struggling to meet the demands of my thesis supervisor who requires obtaining RPM directly from Ansys simulation. The variables I'm using include wind speed variations from 1m/s to 7m/s. If you would be willing to create a tutorial video, I would be extremely grateful to you.

[@fahadahmed3787]

Hello @bastian2497, I am doing my thesis on the same topic where I need to run simulations on Savonius, Darrieus and hybrid type turbine. I'll be happy to connect with you to discuss.

[@antares365]

Hi, very good video. I have an issue, if you coul help me: I've done a simulation of a turbine using this exact method, but when I plot the velocity contour there are always discontinuities between both domains (fixed and rotational) at the interface. How can I fix that? In 20:37 I see you don't have such discontinuities on the plot. I used sliding mesh and not dynamic mesh btw.

[@mechtorious]

You can try to keep the size of mesh near the interface to be almost similar to avoid this error.

[@harsha_gupta2455]

Plug-In error.No valid bodies founf for 2D analysis. This error is popping up for boththe surfaces those are extracted from the parts.Can you kindly tell me how to fix it

[@RichmondLalu]

how can you solve the torque with the given data?

[@muhammadtayyab6280]

hi, thank you for the tutorial. I am following this procedure exactly. The only difference is that i am using a multibladed turbine. I follow the steps as it is but for some reason i get zero force and moment values. i am just using K-omega sst model and my velocity is a constant (5.5m/s). All else is same. I am not sure why i get zero values for force plot and moment. I want to calculate rpm and power.

[@fluentsetup1232]

That's very strange. Is the turbine still accelerating normally? And are you sure you are calculating the force and moment on only the turbine wall?

[@muhammadtayyab6280]

@@fluentsetup1232 yes the turbine does rotate and rotates fast.....and yes i calculate the force on the turbine wall....can you please give me your contact? i would like to share my case files and images as well as the animation....may be you can have a look....thank you!

[@wahyusetiawan2527]

Good day sirs, have you found the solution for that particular issue where we obtained the moment and force approaching zero. The angular velocity seems fine as it increases from zero and finally stable. As it happens, moment, on the other hand, keep decreasing from the maximum value to around zero which made me confuse. Would u mind to share the tips or myabe a contact so that i can complete my research sirs? Thanks in advance

[@Arfujoru]

Hi sir, your video help me a lot, thanks for that! Also I would like to ask, do you have any reference for the use of maximum velocity fo obtain omega? This means that the maximum velocity is the same as tangencial velocity? I trying to undestand the formula you use. Hope you can help me, thank you again!

Hai Sir, May I know, at 6 DOF, how to finalise those moment inertia value?

[@asifsarwar8969]

Solve hua bhai ye problem??

[@magicalad1517]

What was your project bro

[@ManuVM-q9y]

That is the error in dynamic mesh settings. Maybe your remeshing options is not accurate or you didn't define passive in 6DOF

[@kampretkelen]

Hi sir, nice video. I need some help. First, i want to input inlet volumetric flow around 1.6 m3/s to run my pelton turbin simulation. Why the unit in inlet velocity magnitude is "m/s"? Is it possible to convert "m3/s" to "m/s"? What should i do if you cant convert "m3s" to "m/s"? Thanks.

[@johncarlotupaz1279]

calculate it manually Vol Flow Rate = Area of the turbine X Velocity

[@jcsnpdr]

why you used the expression for speed?

[@fluentsetup1232]

I usually like to increase the speed gradually from 0 to a predetermined value and i need an expression for that (or a UDF). Otherwise the velocity jumps from 0 to a higher value in a very small time step and that's not realistic and it looks weird when you do the animation.

[@SunilKumar-sb5kd]

you didnt define refence values ,,how u calculated force and moments....

[@fluentsetup1232]

A default length value is used. I believe ansys use L = 1[m], which seems reasonable given the other dimensiones of the problem.
