CFD Simulation ANSYS Fluent

Presented By:
Group # 7:
Introduction
• In ANSYS Fluent software, CFD simulation is running over two
circular ducts joined at the centerline and using oil as a fluid.
• Boundary conditions and geometry construction are used.
• Input variables determine the meshing and solution process.
• The creation of velocity and pressure contours.
• Pressure and shear force across pipe walls are calculated.
• All results from statistical analyses are compared with theoretical
ones.
Processing
• Click on ANSYS fluent bar and following options appeared.
• Geometry
• Mesh
• Setup
• Solution
• Results
As shown in figure attached.

Theoretical results
Conclusion/Percentage error
• There is only 5 to 10% error in theoretical and software results means
software is quite reliable.
