About This Lesson
- The problem numerically simulates the Fluid-Structure Interaction over Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk using ANSYS Fluent software.
- The Global Hawk geometry was modeled using SpaceClaim and then imported into ANSYS meshing for meshing consisting of 5,056,067 non-conformal elements.
- The simulation used a pressure-based solver.
- One way FSI model analyses total strain, and stress over the turbine.
