Floating point exceptions are common errors in ANSYS Fluent that can be broadly categorized into software-related and hardware-related issues. Software-related errors often stem from numerical
The Courant number (CFL number) is a fundamental concept in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) that provides a stability condition and ensures the correct propagation of
Have you ever wondered why some objects float while others sink? This phenomenon is governed by a fascinating physical principle called buoyancy. From the way
The Boussinesq approximation is a widely used simplification in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for modeling buoyancy-driven flows, particularly in natural convection problems. By assuming density
Transient Simulation in ANSYS Fluent is essential for capturing time-dependent fluid dynamics, unlike steady-state simulations, which assume constant flow properties. Since most natural flows are
In Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the accuracy and reliability of simulation results are significantly influenced by the computational mesh. The Grid independence test is a
Cavitation meaning refers to the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles when local pressure drops below the vapor pressure of a liquid. This phenomenon is
Non-Newtonian fluids in ANSYS Fluent Non-Newtonian fluids are a class of fluids whose viscosity is not constant and changes with the applied shear stress or
In the rapidly evolving world of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), engineers and researchers are faced with the crucial decision of choosing between commercial and open-source
