As part of our webinar today, we’ll be talking about some best practices we use at ATS when we perform CFD. We thought we’d share the list here with our readers and followers:
- Get a full understanding of the software’s capabilities before launching analysis
- Understand and develop accurate boundary conditions
- Perform analytical analysis before starting CFD simulations
- Brute force complete modeling is only a sign of a neophyte always look for the lines of symmetry to see how you can reduce your model size
- Not doing mesh sensitivity analysis is like committing a cardinal sin. Such analysis is a cornerstone of obtaining accurate answers
- Believing your CFD results w/o validation (second independent solution, is like believing in magic. Any analysis, whether done by simulation, analytical or experimental, must be validated
We’ll be Live Tweeting our webinar “CFD Tips and Tricks” today. The hashtag is #ats_cfd
