As part of the visit to Australia by Dr Florian Menter, world-recognised expert in turbulence modelling, LEAP Australia is pleased to announce a webinar to be held on Thursday Aug 30th at 11am AEST. This webinar will provide an overview of recent advancements in turbulence modelling and is being held for those customers unable to...
A quick thanks to the large number of customers in Australia and New Zealand who attended our July webinar on ANSYS CFD Meshing Tips & Tricks. We've had many enquiries from people wanting to know more, so we thought we'd break the content down into the 10 key points below. If you want more information on any specific...
LEAP Australia wishes to congratulate Finite Elements Pty Ltd on their impressive use of ANSYS simulation technology during the design and testing of James Cameron's Deepsea Challenge submersible vehicle, which successfully completed its historic expedition to the Mariana Trench’s lowest point, the Challenger Deep, on March 25, 2012. The Deepsea Challenger submersible became the first...
Many of you may already have detailed knowledge of the use of CFD in your area of expertise, but it is not often that as a CFD community we can all unite in appreciation of a common group of applications that we can all relate to. With the London 2012 Olympic Games fast approaching, we felt...
Dr. Menter is a world-recognised expert in turbulence modelling.
He developed the widely used Shear-Stress Transport (SST) turbulence model, which has set a milestone in the accurate prediction of aerodynamic flows. He has also contributed to the formulation of one-equation turbulence models, advanced near wall treatment of turbulence equations, transition modelling and unsteady flow models. He has been in charge of the turbulence modelling program at ANSYS for more than 15 years and has been involved in a wide range of industrial modelling challenges.
We will now focus on Turbulence Modelling, which is a critical area for any engineer involved with industrial CFD. There are a number of different approaches so it is important that you have solid grounding in this area to enable you to choose the appropriate model for your simulation requirements. It is worth noting that in August...
The previous posts have discussed the meshing requirements that we need to pay attention to for a valid result. It is important to remember that your solution is the numerical solution to the problem that you posed by defining your mesh and boundary conditions. The more accurate your mesh and boundary conditions, the more accurate...
For this post, we'll discuss a topic which allows you to complement your understanding of global and local mesh controls that we have covered previously. Sweep meshing is a meshing method available in ANSYS Meshing that is important for all CFD users to understand and can be readily used to maintain high solver accuracy at the same...
