Wikis > EP-706 ANSYS FLUENT Venturi Simulation Procedure
Date: July 15, 2015
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
- To set a procedure to setup Venturi Effect testing on a sphere and a slanted cylinder in ANSYS Workbench
- This follows the testing of a slanted cylinder in a 1 mm thick wall.
2. Design Modeler (Sphere)
- Open a new project in Workbench
- Place a Fluent analysis system and DCLK on the Geometry cell to open Design Modeler
- Create > Primitives > Cylinder
Generate (F5)
- Create > Primitives > Box
This will be the region where still air is. Decide appropriate dimensions depending on the simulation.
Generate (F5)
- Create > Primitives > Box
This will be the region where the air flows.
Generate (F5)
- Create > Body Transformation > Rotate
- Create > Boolean
- Operation = Unite
- Tool Bodies = select all the primitives created
- Generate (F5)
- Click on the newly created body in Tree Outline and change its Fluid/Solid to Fluid
- Final result should look like this:
- Close Design Modeler
