Abstract:

The article investigated the influence of turbulence parameters of the SolidWorks Flow Simulations CFD package on the results of flow simulation in a two-path ultrasonic flowmeter. It has been found that the main turbulence parameters of SolidWorks Flow Simulations (turbulence intensity, turbulence length, turbulence energy and turbulence dissipation) slightly affect the result of the flow simulation in a full-filled pipeline of circular profile without additional turbulous elements (turbine, rotor, other). In view of this, during the CFD modeling of the flow measurement process using ultrasonic flowmeters, it is recommended to apply turbulence parameters installed in the SolidWorks Flow Simulations CFD package by default. At the same time, the time consumed by the computer to perform CFD modeling is almost unchanged when the specified parameters of the SolidWorks Flow Simulations CFD package.

Abstract:

Researchers especially from engineering field are using Computer Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software to simulate the three dimension (3D) model before they perform any experiments to prove their theories. The aim of this study is to develop a valve model in 3D using Solidworks software and to analyze internal fluid flow using Solidworks Flow Simulation (SWF) software to prove that this software has the capability in performing fluid simulations for the ball valve. The SWF successfully calculates the value of outlet velocity for the ball valve at different closing angles and different pressures value. The results shown are significantly acceptable by referring to the outputs of practical experiment and simulation incidence’s error of Ozdamar model 2007. The average error in calculation for SWF is about 7.42%, unlike FLUENT which is around 11.09%. Therefore; the engineers can simulate their models with higher accuracy using SWF software.

Abstract:

Thermal flow simulation can be used to study the fluid flow and heat transfer for a wide variety of engineering equipment. Flow simulations with the advent of computer architectures with superfast processing capabilities are rapidly emerging as an attractive alternative to conventional thermal flow analysis which is either too restrictive or expensive. In thermodynamic applications, increase of thermal efficiency of heat exchangers (i.e. radiators, cooling towers, condensers, intercoolers) is essential for compact design and improving whole cycle efficiency thus improving economic viability of the system. This paper outlines the process taken to optimize the geometry of conventional heat exchanger. Models were drawn into Solidworks and a computational domain was created. Solidworks Thermal Simulation was used to iterate toward a converged solution with the goal of obtaining a better efficiency of the heat exchanger. The results are analyzed and compared between two differently designed heat exchangers to find out the improvements. These practices were detailed in hopes that further research would use the ground work laid out in this paper to redesign existing heat exchangers.

Abstract:

The most common technology for the manufacture of metal parts and work pieces is casting. High-tech branches of mechanical engineering require the production of high-quality castings of complex configuration from modern alloys with a given chemical composition and mechanical properties. The analysis of the causes of slag inclusions and ways to prevent them showed that in addition to technological means related to quality preparation of metal before pouring, a significant role is played by quiet continuous pouring of metal and properly designed foundry system, including slag trap. However, the use of the most common foundry systems (braking, throttle, with centrifugal slag traps, rain, siphon) to increase the efficiency of slag retention is associated with increased metal consumption, and as a consequence, leads to an increase in the cost of casting. Conducting experimental research by varying the design of the slag trap leads to an increase in the number of field experiments, given their complexity, limited by great difficulties. On the other hand, computer flow modeling allows to study the influence of slag trap design on the flow rate of the melt at the design stage and significantly reduce the cost of introduction of new castings. In order to reliably capture slag and reduce the speed of movement of the melt in the foundries, which provides a smooth filling of the form with an alloy, but without additional costs of metal, the original design of the ribbed slag catcher is proposed. The results of parametric modeling of the melt flow in the channel of the ribbed slag trap showed a decrease in the flow rate along the cross-sectional height of the slag trap compared to traditional by 0.028 m / s or 14.5%. This allowed to reduce the length of the slag trap to the first feeder. The expected metal savings are 0.26%. The form made using a 3D model of the slag trap showed satisfactory molding ability. But the obtained research results are of a recommendatory nature and require practical verification in the production environment. In addition, by varying parameters such as the height of the ribs, the distance between them, the angle of inclination, we can obtain similar results for different castings of different alloys. Given all this, there is a need for further study of the impact of the design of the slag trap on the efficiency of slag retention.

Abstract:

The focus of this work is to simulate and optimize thermal comfort in a ship air-conditioning system by evaluating the performance of different types of air supply outlets. Thermal comfort analyses were performed in Solidworks Flow Simulation software by changing the number, type and position of air supply outlets and the comfort was optimized by evaluating the values of temperature, velocity, PMV (Predicted mean vote) & PPD (Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied). It was concluded from the results obtained from different analyses that air supply outlet is a vital part in any type of HVAC (Heating ventilation & air conditioning) system design, as its number, type and position has significant effect on the air distribution and thermal comfort in a subject space. It was also deduced that improper selection of air supply outlet can result in room air stagnation, unacceptable temperature gradients, and undesirable velocities in the occupied zone that may lead to occupant discomfort. Through this work the importance and effectiveness of CFD (computational fluid dynamics) design tools, in the design & optimization of HVAC systems has been evaluated and it was concluded that CFD design software like Solidworks flow simulation provide an excellent provision to validate different aspects of HVAC design before actual construction.

Abstract:

This paper presents the development process of a bicycle helmet through individual research, creation, presentation and analysis of the results of the most important product development stages. The quality of the development and manufacturing process of the protective equipment for extreme sports is an imperative for a successful product and its flawless function. The design of the bicycle helmet is made following the rules of the design in order to create a well-founded and functional product. After creating design sketches, a virtual prototype was developed in "SolidWorks" using the required ergonomic dimensions. 3D printed model of the human head with adapted ergonomic dimensions and the designed bicycle helmet was developed in order to verify the applied ergonomic measures. The virtual model will be used as an input in the finite element analysis of the helmet impact test based on the EN1078 standard and the aerodynamic simulations executed in "SolidWorks Simulation and Flow Simulation", for verification of the impact and aerodynamic properties. Virtual testing of aerodynamic features and the ability of the bicycle helmet to allow ventilation of the user's head indicate that the helmet performs its function in the desired way. Also, the virtual prototype will be used for the production process simulation in "SolidWorks Plastics" in order to analyze the production of the bicycle helmet. The polycarbonate helmet outer shell is subject to a number of simulations for the sake of analyzing the production process in order to obtain the desired characteristics of the polycarbonate outer shell and to avoid the disadvantages that occur in the manufacturing process. The main goal of this paper is to develop a safety bicycle helmet with improved ergonomic, validation of impact, aerodynamic characteristics and production process in order to produce a high quality product for mass use.

Abstract:

The link rod butterfly valve relies on the link mechanism inside the flow channel to realize opening. The flow within flow channel is complex and the flow state is uncertain, so that pressure load of the flow part can't be determined in the butterfly valve designing, and strength of the parts can’t be calculated accurately and the thrust of the hydraulic cylinder can't be determined accurately. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out flow field analysis. In this paper, by adopting the plug-in COSMOSMotion of Solidworks software, the link rod butterfly valve with DN1800 is carried on motion simulation, determining the specific opening. And then the butterfly valve at different opening is carried out the finite element analysis of the flow field, adopting the plug-in COSMOSFloworks of Solidworks of software. The result shows that: the force is the largest when the valve plate is in just opening, it is 230731N, the strength analysis of the flow part and selection of the hydraulic cylinder should be based on the working condition; When full opening, the upward force on the valve plate is 18504N, this force is the power source when the valve plate is over opening. The above mentioned work provides a reliable theoretical basis for the strength calculation and the force and energy parameters calculation of the link rod butterfly valve and the theoretical reference for flow pattern evaluation of the link rod butterfly valve.

Abstract:

Currently, most domestic blower speed is still in 3000r/min level. The friction loss of mechanical bearings results in their low efficiency. To further improve the efficiency of the fan, a new high-speed maglev centrifugal fan was developed specially. The design of impeller styles, structure and size are rational. 3D graphics of the impeller and volute were drawn by using solidworks software. Application of CFD flow analysis software and the SIMPLE algorithm described viscous flow field within the three-dimensional centrifugal fan. By comparing simulation data with calculated data, optimize the turbine design. The simulative results are basically consistent with the design data, which provides a theoretical basis for the design of a new high-speed magnetic levitation fans, improving the level of centrifugal fan design.

Abstract:

The aim of the research was to define an appropriate design of the nozzle which could be used to cavitate microbubbles and direct the cavitating water flow on the cleaning metal surface. Three different nozzles were evaluated. SolidWorks 2011 Flow Simulation software was used for calculations. Volume of vacuum bubbles in the flowing part of the nozzle was established. The water pressure at the inlet was varied from 4 to 10 MPa. Calculations show that in all nozzle structures amount of bubbles change slightly while pressure is varied from 4 to 10 MPa, so the optimal pressure of the water flow can be considered as 4 MPa.

Abstract:

The article is dedicated to the development of generalized methods of calculation, modeling and optimization of the cyclones’ parameters that are used to clean the air from the grain dust. The basis of the developed methods is the usage of computational hydraulic gas dynamics, in particular the SOLIDWORKS software package and the integrated CFD-package SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation, as well as the principles of theory of similarity and dimensions. The deposition efficiency coefficient was chosen as the optimization criterion that can be calculated as the ratio of the mass of deposited particles to the total mass of grain dust particles entering the working volume of the cyclone. By means of SOLIDWORKS, a parametrized solid model of cyclone with the necessary elements of adaptation for further study of gas-dynamic processes was created. The dependence of the deposition efficiency on various parameters that can be optimized, in particular, on the pressure at the inlet and outlet nozzles of the cyclone was studied; volumetric flow rate of air to be purified; design dimensions of the working chamber of the cyclone etc. The usage of the simulation methods allowed to obtain an extended database of optimization parameters and values of the objective function that correspond to them. The generalization of the obtained data set in the form of dimensionless criteria was enabled by the analysis of the dimensions of the quantities that affect the deposition efficiency. Using the basics of similarity theory, the type of functional dependence between similarity criteria was established. The constant parameters of the mentioned power function are determined using a two-dimensional approximation using a software package for mathematical calculations – Mathcad 15. The obtained mathematical model allows to select the optimal operating modes (volumetric air flow, inlet and outlet pressures of cyclone etc.) depending on the design and the size of the cyclone that allows to maximize the efficiency of grain dust deposition.

Abstract:

Currently high attention is drawn to the studies of the influence of pulsating flow to the heat transfer. Such unsteady flows can be created artificially or may appear during the operation of the thermal energy equipment. The purpose of this work is to perform numerical studies of the pulsating fluid flow effect supplied to a panel heating radiator on its heat output; and to determine the effect of pulsations of heat output on a human comfort level as well. Numerical modeling was prepared with CAD/CFD/HVAC complex of SolidWorks/FlowSimulation software. Where the complete system of Navier-Stokes equations and the energy equation were solved using the k-ε turbulence model in a non-stationary formulation of the problem. Results of the numerical calculations showed that the periodic pulsating flow of the fluid in the heating radiator during operation, in comparison with the stationary mode, leads to increasing and decreasing in the thermal power of the radiator. But at the same time, with an average estimate, the thermal power with pulsations of the fluid’s flow increases for about 10-15% comparing with a stationary mode. Model of the office room in the considered operating mode is not comfortable; this conclusion is based on such criteria as operating temperature, PMV, PPD, identified in the numerical calculations process.

Технології просторової візуалізації і симуляції роботи технологічного обладнання набули особливої актуальності завдяки тому, що забезпечують істотно більш наочний спосіб розгляду проектованого об'єкта. Віртуальні прототипи, в ролі яких виступають 3D моделі, дозволяють проаналізувати роботу обладнання перед прийняттям проектних рішень. При вивченні та дослідженні моделей істотну допомогу надає анімація – тобто відтворення і демонстрація моделі в процесі її формування або зміни.У даній статті описується моделювання потоку рідини в замкнутому контурі на основі твердотільної просторової моделі елементів мультизональної системи кондиціонування. В якості системи просторового моделювання та аналізу використаний продукт компанії SolidWorks Inc. Для моделювання потоку використовується інструмент Flow Simulation, який включений в SolidWorks і реалізує методи обчислювальної гідродинаміки. При підготовці до дослідження була створена просторова модель і сформована розрахункова область. Суть формування розрахункової області зводиться до виділення на моделі замкнутого контуру, що відповідає умовам наявності стінок зіткнення і обмеженості вхідних і вихідних отворів. Після чого задача аналізу протікання рідини по замкнутому контуру зводиться до вирішення стаціонарної задачі внутрішнього типу. В цьому випадку замкнута порожнина – це і є рідинний простір, а заглушки на кінцях отворів трубопроводу є тими елементами, які завершують формування системи "рідина-тіло". Для такої системи вже можливе проведення гідрогазодинамічного аналізу за допомогою Flow Simulation. Використання комплексу сучасних програмних засобів забезпечило візуальну оцінку картини перебігу холодоагенту по трубопроводу мультизональної системи кондиціонування, необхідну для визначення проблемних місць.

Abstract:

Solar cells utilize only the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum to generate electricity. A great reduction in the temperature of a solar cell resulting from filtering infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths will eventually lead to an increase in efficiency. Here, a detailed analysis of the use of an optical bandpass interference filter with antireflective coating as a potential solution to this problem has been carried out. The optical bandpass filter aims to filter out unwanted wavelengths while the antireflective coating functions to reduce the amount of light reflected from the solar panel surface. A simulation program using SolidWorks (Flow Simulation Study) has been performed to demonstrate the effect of utilizing optical bandpass interference filter with antireflective coating on solar panel and the temperature of each cell layer. The thermal analysis results obtained from SolidWorks were then exported to MATLAB/Simulink to investigate the electrical output parameters. Results showed that optical bandpass interference filter combined with antireflective coating could reduce the temperature of the solar cell by 11.83 Kelvin which led to 14.32% increase in the maximum output power within an hour of exposure to peak solar radiation located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Abstract:

The article contains a description of mathematical models, the bases of which is the representation of the body circulatory system as a multifractal object. As examples, we consider the solution of two problems. The first issue is related to the normal state of the body’s life support system, namely, heat transfer in human skin. The model base is the equations of hydrodynamics and heat transfer. Quantitative results of calculating heat fluxes in three layers of the dermis are presented. The second issue deals with a violation of fractality due to the presence of arteriovenous malformation in the brain vascular system. The SolidWorks 2017 Flow Simulation software product serves as the basis for the implementation of a blood flow model in the presence of malformation. As a result of the simulation, data on the velocities and blood flow in the vessels were obtained for various cases of malformations.

The flow and temperature patterns are preliminary investigated using SolidWorks Flow Simulation software, in order to gain insight into the involved physical processes, and to find the exchanger weak points before being manufactured and tested. The analysed equipment tranfers heat from the flue gasses generated by a gasification system, towards a liquid heat transfer medium. This is subsequently sent to a second liquidliquid heat exchanger used to heat water from a boiler.

Abstract:

Background: Besides biological factors, abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture is also caused by mechanical parameters, which are constantly affecting the wall’s tissue due to their abnormal values. The ability to evaluate these parameters could vastly improve the clinical treatment of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. The objective of this study was to develop and demonstrate a methodology to analyze the fluid dynamics that cause the wall stress distribution in abdominal aortic aneurysms, using accurate 3D geometry and a realistic, nonlinear, elastic biomechanical model using a computer-aided software. Methods: The geometry of the abdominal aortic aneurysm; was constructed on a 3D scale using computer-aided software SolidWorks (Dassault Systems SolidWorksCorp., Waltham MA). Due to the complex nature of the abdominal aortic aneurysm geometry, the physiological forces and constraints acting on the abdominal aortic aneurysm wall were measured by using a simulation setup using boundary conditions and initial conditions for different studies such as finite element analysis or computational fluid dynamics. Results: The flow pattern showed an increase velocity at the angular neck, followed by a stagnated flow inside the aneurysm sack. Furthermore, the wall shear stress analysis showed to focalized points of higher stress, the top and bottom of the aneurysm sack, where the flow collides against the wall. An increase of the viscosity showed no significant velocity changed but results in a slight increase in overall pressure and wall shear stress. Conclusions: Conducting computational fluid dynamics modeling of the abdominal aortic aneurysm using computer-aided software SolidWorks (Dassault Systems SolidWorksCorp., Waltham MA) proves to be an insightful approach for the clinical setting. The careful consideration of the biomechanics of the abdominal aortic aneurysm may lead to an improved, case-specific prediction of the abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture potential, which could significantly improve the clinical management of these patients.

Abstract:

The multi-copters are one of the important aircrafts in the world because they are used in both military and civil application. The problem of these aircrafts is the low efficiency of its propellers. That’s why, it is necessary to study the aerodynamic structure around every rotor. In this paper, a computer simulation has been done to study the aerodynamic structure around a NACA 6409 airfoil rotor. The numerical model is based on the resolution of the Navier-Stockes equations with a standard k-ε model. Then, the finite volume discretization of these equations leads to solve it. The local characteristics of the aerodynamic structure are extracted using the software Solidworks Flow Simulation and the validation is done with comparison with anterior result of Alexandrov (2013).

Abstract:

The study presents a computational analysis of a vane pump using two different turbulence models namely κ-ε and κ-ω. The geometry characteristics of the vane pump were obtained by disassembly and further measurements. The CAD model for the computational domain was developed in SOLIDWORKS®. The CFD modeling was powered by ANSYS®, which allowed the evaluation of different mesh types and turbulence models. A total set of six simulations were performed to obtain comparison schemes for turbulence model evaluation. Specifically, the angular velocity and excentricity were varied within the simulations. Both turbulence models were carefully validated using the manufacturer´s dataset as validation criteria, obtaining a relative error of less than 5%. The κ-ω experienced the best performance when describing the flow variables, excepting the pressure gradient. Specifically, the κ-ω presented an accurate prediction of edge effects, energy losses in the walls, and turbulent viscosity. Notably, the CFD modeling showed that density and velocity variations are not significant. Overall, CFD modeling demonstrated to be a robust tool to gain insight understanding of the flow interactions in vane pump operation.

This article presents a diagnostic device model, which by using chemical reagents and microfluidics that makes a sort of particle separation and was developed to diagnose an acquired viral immunodeficiency. The device allows to isolate leukocytes and apply a reagent that measures the presence or absence of this virus. The design on the other hand uses tools such as SolidWorks and Autodesk Simulation, which, with the rupture of the membranes and the separation of their components, allows the chemical reaction in the particles and the detection of the virus. Based on the choice of particle analysis and validating the performance of the fluid maintained in the filter stage, which is represented by 5 flow lines, it shows the movement of 5 particles with the same diameter. Additionally, three tests were performed that varied the diameter of the particles to 5 μm, 10 μm and a larger diameter particle (15 μm). The results show that, with a diameter of 5 μm, the particles move smoothly and the filter can reach the next stage. The particles of 10 μm in diameter presented a normal blood flow, however, an obstruction in the particles of 15 μm in diameter can be observed.

Abstract:

To improve the problem of turbulence in the forebay of the lateral inlet pumping station, a typical lateral inlet pumping station project in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, China was taken as the research object. The forebay of the pumping station is a building connecting the river channel and the pumping station into the water tank. Based on the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) law and the k-ε turbulence model, the computational fluid dynamics method (CFD) technology compares and analyzes the numerical simulation with or without rectification measures for the forebay of the lateral intake pumping station when multiple units are operating. The three-dimensional model was created by SolidWorks modeling software and the numerical simulation simulated by CFX-ANSYS. To alter the flow pattern in the forebay of the pumping station, various rectification measures were chosen. Internal rectification flow patterns in the forebay under multiple plans, uniformity of flow velocity distribution in the measuring section, and vortex area reduction rates are investigated and compared. Based on the analysis and comparison of numerical simulation results, when the parabolic wall and some rectification piers are set significantly it improves the flow pattern of the forebay of the lateral inlet pumping station. It also makes the flow pattern of the inlet pool better and increases the uniformity of the flow velocity distribution by 8%. Further, it reduced the vortex area by 70%, effectively improving the operating efficiency of the pump. The research results of this paper provide a technical reference for the improvement of the flow pattern in the forebay of the lateral inlet pumping station.
