ANSYS Fluent Tutorial : Drag and Lift Calculations in ANSYS Fluent (Part-2)

In this tutorial, it has been shown how you can calculate drag and lift forces and coefficients. A rectangular plate has been taken as a specimen and placed perpendicular to flow direction. The air at high velocity is blowing over it. Due to blow of air, the drag and lift forces got developed on this specimen. In the current tutorial, it has been shown how you can calculate the drag and lift forces.
This is Part 2 of the Tutorial. This part contains the CFD -Post Processing. You will learn how you save the contours, modify the default legend sizes, creating streamlines in tubular and ribbon forms. For part 1 of this tutorial please visit our youtube channel:

Nice video sir, thanks. i'm newbie and have a request, please make a video with nozzle analysis on sootblower when the nozzle is emitting steam. Thank you very much sir, hope this channel got a lot of subscribers and beneficial to many people

[@AnsysTutor]

Thank you, will try to make a tutorial on that.

[@Tradingengineind]

wonderful work by this channel

[@AnsysTutor]

Thank you!!!! for your love for our channel!!!!!!! Keep smiling

[@amlanbairagi3146]

Thanks for this wonderful tutorial. Is there any method to arrange the legend scale range?

[@AnsysTutor]

Yes, you can change it. For that go to view tab in default legend settings.

How do I see what component of the drag is viscous forces and pressure forces?

[@MrKantuski]

Why are there no forces on the front wall? Is it possible to find the force/pressure on only one face of the solid?

[@henrycoldrain8151]

Hey. When we check the force on wall solid its 347 N compared to 3000 N of inlets force. Is the reason behind that the force is calculated regarding to surface area that particles hits and the cross sectional area of inlet is way larger compared to wall solid. Or is there something else?

[@AnsysTutor]

Yes, you can only see the force acting on the selected face.

From where you have took the reference?

What if I want to analyze a boat, would I only create an enclosure around the submerged portion of the boat? I have never worked with ansys or really any simulation tool other than a handful of super simple projects.

[@AnsysTutor]

Yes you need to create the section where there is fluid. As ansys fluent is based on CFD , it basically analyse the fluid flow in this case.

[@projectblitz7290]

@@AnsysTutor So I've been using fluent but I'm a complete beginner with 3d software and what I'm trying to do is simulate fluid flow on a hull of a boat but I don't know how to make it so that only part of my model is in the fluid. When I create an enclosure it always encloses the entirety of my model. You don't happen to have any videos that can help with that do you?

[@AnsysTutor]

Do you want a single phase simulation or multiphase , Can you tell the objective of the simulation so that I can suggest you properly.

[@alqaadi9858]

the video could've been half shorter, but thanks it was very informative

[@AnsysTutor]

Thanks Alqaadi for your feedback , will try to make videos shorter as much as we can so that everybody could understand it properly.

[@alqaadi9858]

@@AnsysTutor all the video's i seen from this channel are perfectly sized. as long you know what you're about to do from the start, and keep strolling to minimum except when your're pointing out "these buttons could be important, but not in this project". also when you're actions are accompanied by text it can be unimaginably helpful. hope this feedback help.

Can anyone tell at which point the graph for cf and cd is shown ,thank you.
