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...
Welcome to the first in LEAP's series of CFD Tips & Tricks blogs. The topics for this first series of blog entries will focus on the selection of efficient and appropriate meshing methods, mesh sizing and mesh controls in ANSYS Workbench Meshing. Meshing is one of the most important influences on CFD simulation accuracy, although it...
You may already know that Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is currently used by all Formula One teams as part of their ongoing development for their aerodynamics and cooling packages. Since the technologies pioneered in F1 car development regularly flow through into other engineering industries, we felt that a post on this topic was the perfect...
