CFD Simulation of Airfoil | Tutorial | Concepts

This week’s video is a follow up to our last video where we talked about the theory behind CFD. In this video, we have brought on our classmate , Nikhil Mahalingesh ([e-mail]) to help break down the things you have to keep in mind while simulating a fluid flow and we do this while parallely solving a problem on ANSYS FLUENT. The case we have solved is the NACA 0012 symmetrical airfoil and the results can be validated.
This video would not be possible without Ashvij Narayanan who helped us film the content. Do check out Ashvij's Instgram. We are sure you will like it.

[@noelsaldanha2824]

I can make my own CFD simulations now! Thanks @Nikhil for the wonderful explanation! Looking forward to more videos from you on CFD

[@jbiju9336]

Great video guys. I am studying mechanical engineering and is really interested in learning about CFD.

[@Ameerscholary]

thanks guys for that god bless you

[@bhushan797]

Cfd analysis of catalytic converter to achieve limited back pressure and increasing filtration efficiency .. please help ..

[@exam-z7q]

why only 2 vdos....please make atleast 20 vdos

[@anandraja4122]

Mahalingesh we love you

[@bharathkumararaveeti4685]

HOW CAN I GET OPTIMIZED AOA VALUE AT MAXIMUM cL/cD (whether ive to do it at every angle ?)

[@nikniy]

We are here only for Nikhil.

[@shivkumar-qh7dx]

how exterior design should be for fully electric plane, how electric plane generates aerodynamics forces like thrust,lift.drag and weight..pls reply

[@vinodkushwaha9926]

For 250mm chord length, From video I came to know the size of domain but what bias factor number and number of elements you have used in edge sizing. Please tell the data. Overall video was usefull for me for airfoil analysis. Thanks 2BS and Nikhil.

[@thejaatsahabvlogs]

Thanks a lot, guys.

[@RanaAfaq-n4f]

how to get crack anasys fluent

[@nithishakanneti3063]

Can u please make a video on how to choose models(like k-e, k-o etc..)

[@jaydevdave7369]

Wishes from RWTH Aachen, More power to you guys 💪

[@kiranrajmuthuraj4112]

Great explanation 👍👌

[@dileshwarrao2436]

hey can you make a video on structured mesh of airfoil which u haven't showed in this video

[@adityanayak3314]

Your have all 5 unit explaination in CFD please send me thank you

[@sumanraypramanik3798]

Can you guys help split the domain into the laminar and turbulent regions for better results?

[@alpstech]

Could you please do the same simulation using openfoam ? 🙂

[@shivkumar-qh7dx]

could you pls make one video on how to read the aerodynamis analysis...with color map...i mean low pressure area ..represents in which color

[@2BrokeScientists]

Stay tuned for our next videos, where we delve deeper in airfoils and their performance characteristics :)

[@rajanikanthbk6617]

Nikhil and team thank you.

[@vatsal811]

where's the validation link?

[@maciejdawczak9893]

Cool!! But pity you didnt show how to set it up in Fluent

[@2BrokeScientists]

You could follow a lot of tutorials that are already on the internet. But we will plan on doing on soon :)

[@sumanthbhat9993]

Can you please make one separate video, clearly explaining y+, u+ and wall functions..

[@2BrokeScientists]

Yes Sumanth, we will surely try a dedicate a separate video on explaining wall scaling and why is is necessary specifically in wall bounded turbulent flows.

[@manishkanojia2636]

Suggest some tutorials for Ansys and some books for studying the theory discussed here.

[@2BrokeScientists]

The theory can be read from a lot of textbooks, to start of : Computational Fluid Dynamics by JD Anderson would be a good start followed by Computational methods for fluid dynamics by Joel H. Ferziger. Tutorials are really case specific to what you want to implement, Cheers

[@Thalassophile79]

Please do more vedios on anays fluent..

[@amansagar3731]

From where did u imported the airfoil?

[@madhanc2485]

hai I'm in need of simulating the flow through an aerolizer which carries nano particles to lungs via vocal cavity..can U guys help me with this

[@2BrokeScientists]

I think the literature that is available in the internet is quite vast. Therefore it is important that you, first decide what you would want to acheive through your simulation. Like 1. The computational domain 2. The specific flow condition and then look at relevant literature for your purpose. Have fun!!

[@VaIrMp]

can you make a step by step more detailed video ?

[@2BrokeScientists]

Sure, will put in the list of future videos!!

[@felixjoe7151]

Can I get your contact for a regular content.

[@prashantdahiya711]

Start using Air Filter

[@srujanrajm.basavarajappa5367]

hey, I wanted to know some more details why exactly you use "c" domain. Won't rectangular domain work for an airfoil?

[@parindgandhi2312]

Faadu video bhailog.Aisi cfd pr dusri videos kb banaonge?
