Tower aerodynamic project presents a CFD analysis of the Burj Khalifa (828 m) and Jeddah Tower (1000 m) under a steady 10 m/s wind using ANSYS Fluent. Geometries were built in SpaceClaim/Design Modeler and meshed in ANSYS Meshing, later converted into polyhedral elements for efficiency. A pressure-based steady solver with the Realizable k-ε turbulence model was applied, with velocity-inlet and pressure-outlet boundary conditions. Results show pressure drag dominates in both towers, while torque due to height is a critical factor, influenced strongly by tower geometry.
Stall Delay CFD Simulation of Bionic Airfoils: Paper Validation
Intermediate, Advanced
Price: $180
The current CFD Analysis numerically validates the paper “Numerical and experimental investigation of bionic airfoils with leading-edge tubercles at a low-Re in considering stall delay” via ANSYS Fluent software. The geometry of a NACA 4415 baseline airfoil with leading-edge tubercles is designed in SpaceClaim and meshed in ANSYS Meshing, generating 7,291,791 elements which were later converted to polyhedrons for improved accuracy and reduced cost. The turbulence of the flow is modeled using the Realizable k-epsilon turbulence model, with steady-state simulations performed at angles of attack of 18°, 22°, and 26°.

In the Laser Cladding project, we simulated the deposition of nickel droplets under an argon gas stream using ANSYS Fluent software. The three-dimensional geometry was created in Design Modeler with a computational domain of 0.05 × 0.01 × 0.025 m. A structured non-conformal mesh was generated in ANSYS Meshing, consisting of approximately 798,400 computational cells with refined regions near the deposition zone. The transient simulation employed the VOF multiphase model, coupled with species transport and energy equations, while turbulence was modeled using the Realizable k-ε model. A User-Defined Function (UDF) implemented the moving Gaussian laser heat source, enabling realistic simulation of droplet injection, spreading, and weld layer formation.

In this project, we have simulated the thermal and airflow performance of a greenhouse with and without a heating system using ANSYS Fluent software. Three-dimensional modeling was done using Design Modeler software. The meshing of the model has been done using ANSYS Meshing software, with approximately 1,860,000 cells for the base case and 3,110,000 cells for the heated case. The energy equation, species transport, and solar ray tracing using the Discrete Ordinates (DO) radiation model are enabled for accurate representation of heat transfer and humidity. The standard K-epsilon model is selected for turbulence characteristics of fluid flow.
DEM Modeling of Four-Way Coupled Particle Flow in an Industrial Pipe CFD Simulation by ANSYS Fluent
Advanced
Price: $150
The problem numerically simulates particle-laden airflow in a long pipe with a bend using ANSYS Fluent software. We perform this simulation in steady state for the fluid phase with unsteady (transient) particle tracking. We model the problem using a four-way coupled DEM–CFD DPM approach to capture particle–particle and particle–fluid interactions. The DEM collision model, Saffman lift force, and two-way turbulence coupling are included as per project requirements. The geometry is created in ANSYS Design Modeler and meshed in ANSYS Meshing with an unstructured grid of about 382,000 elements.

This project simulates blood flow in a porous artery wall using CFD in ANSYS. The wall is modeled as a high-viscosity fluid to mimic porosity, with no actual flow through it. Geometry was simplified, meshed, and solved in Fluent under steady laminar conditions. The study includes validation, mesh independence, and analysis of velocity profiles.

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.

This project simulates and analyzes a dust-shaped geometry exposed to wind using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The study employs a pressure-based solver with a focus on understanding drag forces resulting from varying inlet velocities and rotational dynamics. The study uses advanced optimization techniques, including Design of Experiment (DOE) and Central Composite Design (CCD) methods, to explore 15 design scenarios. The findings highlight the inlet velocity magnitude as the most influential parameter, aiding in the optimization of aerodynamic efficiency and contributing to enhanced dust simulation accuracy.
