I am newer working with CFD. you can explain for me why lift = pressure * scalars y. I mean I can understand what is the scalars y. thank you .
@avianhanggliders19858 ай бұрын
@@HoaiThanh-wm6ze In this case, his model is set up with y axis being vertically up. So NORMAL_Y is a scalar value, it's the component of the normal of each element in the vertically up direction. Pressure times that component is the force on that cell. Add up all the forces on all the cells to get the total.

I a not getting the same options as you when extracting block. I only get one option so i cant extract my geometry. I'm trying to do the flow over golfball vs a smooth ball. I used symmetry on my study. Don't Know if that might affect anything

Really nice video about the possibilities in ParaView ! It might also be interesting to know, how to create the 3D model. My approach would be to create a parametric model with Salome Meca Software by using the Python interface and get it meshed with hexa elements.

How to get lift coefficient
@mohamedsereez20104 жыл бұрын
I think this will give normal force and axial force. Not lift and drag.
@lucderuiter89044 жыл бұрын
I think I agree with you, but I am not sure. To get the total lift force the pressure load on the mesh face should be multiplied with the mesh face area.
@mohamedsereez20104 жыл бұрын
@@lucderuiter8904 To be more precise, if you change angle of attack with velocity vectors this procedure will give Normal and Axial force. On the other hand, if you change angle of attack by body rotation it wil give Lift and drag force.

Hi, I tried this on one of my projects and the integrated values are showing the drag values without considering the viscous effect. Is it possible to get those values too, the software I did the simulations showed both the drag due to the pressure force and the drag due to the viscous effects. How do I get it on Paraview?
@professionalprocrastinator8103 Жыл бұрын
It's a late answer and you surely have figured it out by now, but for reference you need to have or compute the wall shear stress then include them in the calculation of the forces

Hi! Thanks for the video. I would like to make you a question. For the incomprensible case, the pressure is usually not in [Pa] but it is divided by the fluid density (so the unit is m^2/s^2). On that case should we multiply the pressure for the density in order to have the proper pressure? (and the proper forces). Second question. I am calculating the forces exchanged between a boat hull and the water (so density=1000 kg/m^3). Should I use the same formula multiplied by the water density or should I use the same formula? Thanks in advance for the answer!

Sorry for the late reply. Anyway, the procedure in paraview is exactly the same. The only thing you have to change in your CFD simulation is the geometry configuration!

Hi, you said you have an air flow that's straight along the z-axis I believe. I'm trying to calculate drag and lift of a rudder, so naturally, I will do that in various angles of water flow. How do I do that? My Water flows in negative z-axis direction at 0 degrees. At 20 degrees it flows cos(20deg) in neg z-axis and sin(20deg) in neg x-axis. Do I just use those same factors in the lift calculation? So should it look like this: lift = pressure*(cos(20deg)*Normals_X+sin(20deg)*Normals_Z)
@ConselfCompany7 жыл бұрын
One simple thing one could do is to maintain the flow speed aligned with the simulation main reference frame and turn the geometry accordingly around the right axis. Otherwise you con project your velocity component inside paraview using the calculator filter.
@dasZwergvomberg7 жыл бұрын
I thought about turning the geometry, but I don't like that solution. I don't quite understand what you mean by projecting the velocity component. Projecting it where?
@ConselfCompany7 жыл бұрын
If your inlet velocity is slightly inclined with respect to the system of reference you can define a new system of reference that is aligned with the velocity, and then calculate the velocity components with respect to it, projecting them onto it. This means you have to compute the proper coordinate transformation via the cosine matrix and project the velocity vector. But you have to pay attention also to how surface normals are defined in such a case, since they are vector too, you should take it into account in the new system of reference. So probably turning the CAD can be the most straightforward way.
@dasZwergvomberg7 жыл бұрын
But can't I just calculate it as if I didn't have an inflow angle and add both, which should give me the resulting force vector? And then I can just take out the drag and lift components depending on my own frame of reference.
@ConselfCompany7 жыл бұрын
It can be a solution, it should work. You can calculate lift & drag for a 0 angle geometry and inflow, then rotate both the geometry and the flow inclination and use your approach to verify if it works.
