Numerical Calculation of Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer
|
|
· Laminar or turbulent flow · Isothermal or non-isothermal flow · Steady-state or transient flow
|
|
Setup and analysis of a problem: |
|
Pre-processing:
· Drawing of the geometry. · Specification of problem physics and boundary conditions. · Grid generation. · Choice of control parameters for the calculation process. |
|
Calculation
· The user may change, during the calculation, some parameters for the monitoring of the iterative process. |
|
Post-processing:
· Representation of streamlines. · Vectorial representation of the velocity field. · Representation of colour-shaded and line contours. · Data generation for graphical x-y representations. · Statistical data for the domain and boundary regions.
|
|
Although EasyCFD is a simple software, mainly oriented for didactic or educational purposes, it may become a valuable tool for a first analysis in practical situations.
EasyCFD is based in a user-friendly graphical interface, allowing the user to easily draw the geometry, impose boundary conditions, control calculation parameters (subrelaxation coefficients, advection schemes, multigrid resolution, etc) and post-process the results. |
