Overview
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be a powerful tool used to assist in structural analysis. This presentation will first discuss some CFD modelling methods and then how these can be integrated into wider projects. This will be followed by a case study, highlighting high-pressure air venting onto a simple plate.
Whilst the CFD example is not complex, it will give a good insight into the considerations required when scoping and developing a CFD investigation, along with a greater understanding of what level of data output can be expected.
This event is co-badged with the IMechE Bath & Bristol Young Members’ Panel.
