The length of the wind tunnel (fluid domain) has 25m long and 10 m height. The diameter of cylinder is 1m.Wall (SideA)InletOutlet5DCylinderWall (SideB)Fluid domain5D20DAssumption and Boundary Conditions:1. 2 dimensional problems2. Steady state condition3. The uniform flow velocity4. No Heat transfer5. Neglect the gravitational force6. Constant air densityPre-processing stageIn this stage, we implement the “ICEM CFD" to perform the pre-processing work. The basic steps as follow:1. Establish geometry model2. Block the parts3. Generation the O grid4. Mesh the model and check quality of mesh5. Extrude the mesh6. Reset the BC’s (boundary conditions)7. Output to CFX5。
71 Creating Geometry1. Open ICEM CFDDouble Click the “ICEM CFD” Icon, afterwards, you can see the interface of the ICEM CFD.Open Project…: Set the name with “cylinder_2d”, and Click “Save”2 Creating Geometry:A. PointsClick button “Create Point" and then click button “Explicit Coordinates”Set the points in Cartesian coordinate system(X, Y, Z) with ( X=0, Y=0, Z=0 ) respectively.Click “Apply" button and see the screen: a point is created A tree widget can be seen at left of the screen (A) and (B) The same method creates other points:X=0; Y=0.5, -0.5 X=—5; Y=5, -5X=20; Y=5, -5 Y=0; X=0.5,—0.5 B. Draw line (curve)First of all see the tree widget, open Model〉Geo-55metry>Points by right buttonSelect Show Point Names and you can see the name of each point like the figure showed.Now you can create curves Click button “Create/Modify Curve" Click button “Create Curve” Note: the left corner of the black screen: Select locations with left button, middle=done, right=cancelSelect points by using left button of the mouse。
Change the name of the Part with “INLET”: Select PONITS05 and POINTS.06 with left button (A),And draw a line with middle button “done” (B) and the INLET part is created in the tree widgetThe same steps draw the curves named “OUTLET, SIDEA, SIDEB" with the POINTS.07and POINTS.08, POINTS.06 and POINTS.07, POINTS.05 and POINTS.08 respectively.We will see the line and the tree widget Draw the cylinderClick button “Circle or arc from Center point and 2 points on plane”. Set the Part with name “CYLINDER”Click button and select points “POINTS.00, POINTS.01, POINTS.03" with left button respectively (A)。
Draw the cylinder by middle button (B).See tree widget:Close Points nameUse button to fit the windowSet the body and material Click button “Create Body"Choose button “Material Point” and select “Selected surfaces" in the “By Topology" menuChange the name of the part with “FLUID”; open the Show Point Name of the tree widget and use select POINTS.06 and POINTS08.The same way change the part name with “CYLINDER” and select POINTS01 and POINTS.02Close Show Point Name and open the tree widget:Open the bodies and you can seeAt last, open the >Save Geometry As…Give it the name with “cylinder_2d”。
Click “save” Now we begin to block the model. Click button “Create Block"See the first one , choose the part with “FLUID”, from the pull down menu select “FLUID”And set the Initialize Blocks type with “2D Planar” Click “Apply” button. We will see that the colors of figure are changed From (A) to (B)See the tree widget: Model〉BlockingThen create some assistant points with button “Create Point"{Y=0 X=-0.45,-0.4,-0.35,-03,-0.25,-02,—0.15,-0.1,-0.5, 0.5, 0.1, 0.15, 02, 0.25, 0.3, 0.35, 0。

01 to POINTS.04” See the tree widgetSelect the “Blocking” and select “Index Control" Model〉Blocking: Index Control (using right button of the mouse)We can see at the right corner of the screenBy using button and we set I min=2 and see the figure The same way we set I max =3 , J min=2 , J max=3And the screen shown that The same way block again from “POINTS.00, POINTS.09 to POINTS44":(A)(B)(C) After block.See the tree widget: Model〉Par。
