ANALYSIS.
1) Importance of CFD.
The ability to predict the impact of flows in product performance may
be slow but any simulation is used. Engineers can benefit from CFD ,
as in automotive, aerospace , defense , high technology, among
others. All designs are CFD sometime life cycle. The advantages of
CFD are predicting fluid properties in great detail, design assistance
and rapid solutions avoiding costly experiments and also a
visualization and animation of the process is obtained in terms of the
fluid variables.
2) Comparative between CFD and experimental methods.
At this point we think that the CFD software that we provide these
capabilities prediction is best, as we press a button and get a solution.
There are a multitude of problems that must be confronted before
obtaining a good solution. Firstly you can lose sight of the solution
must be consistent with reality. A pretty useless if no solution
approximates the actual physical experiments. That is why any
numerical simulation should look for a method validation experimental
and / or analytical. Useless fields display pressures and velocities, if
the data reflected in the response are false.
For this reason the CFD jokingly called Color Fluid Dynamics. It is
highly recommended that any numerical simulation carried a validation
process and quality control results. This ensures the reliability of the
data.
The global industry trend to use these tools is to always use both
methods of design, experimental tests and numerical simulations;
experimental tests need of numerical simulations and vice versa, with
the same results.
