This artery flow project involves the simulation of blood flow in a compliant artery using CFD and FSI techniques in ANSYS. The primary objectives are to validate the simulation against a published study, analyze mesh independence, and investigate the effects of wall compliance and porosity on hemodynamic behavior. The artery geometry is simplified and reconstructed for numerical accuracy, with meshing performed in ANSYS Meshing and flow solved using Fluent. Wall deformation is modeled using the FSI module, while porosity effects are simulated by assigning high-viscosity fluid properties to the vessel wall. Simulations are performed under unsteady, incompressible flow conditions with non-Newtonian blood properties. Key results include time-dependent deformation, wall shear stress, and velocity distributions, with validation confirming a shear stress error below 1% in mesh studies.

Co-firing Biomass with Coal Gasification. This project involves the simulation of coal and biomass co-firing in a furnace using CFD techniques. The primary objectives are to examine the combustion characteristics and validate the simulation results against the study by Ghenai and Janajreh. The furnace is defined with specific boundary conditions, and simulations are performed using an unsteady, incompressible flow model. The turbulent flow within the furnace is modeled using the k-e RNG turbulent model, thermal radiation is simulated with the P1 model, and combustion is analyzed with a PDF model. The simulation incorporates the kinetics/diffusion-limited rate model for particle combustion and the two competing rates Kobayashi model for devolatilization. Results are compared in terms of temperature contours and particle trajectories, confirming the simulation’s accuracy with a maximum error of approximately 5% in particle temperature ranges.
