Flow and heat transfer

Heat exchanger

CFD of heat exchanger

Computational Fluid Dynamics simulation, of a heat changer. with constant inflow rate.

The aim of the simulation was to find the temperature field inside the computational domain, while the inlet and outlet temperatures set to be constant values, and unknown heat flux has to be found, such that will yield the desired outflow temperature.

One of the problems the simulation aim to solve, is a very high heat exchange temperature which cause a physical failure due to high temperature.

The analysis is a steady state, with SST - DES turbulence model, boussinesq approximation, and almost 5M elements.

Transient flow - non lethal bullet

CFD of non lethal paintball bullet 

Three dimension CFD simulation of paintball bullet, being subjected to a constant vector field. 

The simulation aims to examine a paintball, non-lethal bullet for the police forces. While The main objective of the study was to find lift and drag force.

The simulation is transient, using k-w SST turbulence model, with the bullet is rotating around it's advancement axis, lift force is calculated and has a frequency of 62.5 Hz, with values of +4.02mN and -4.9mN, meaning that the average lift force is negative, a value needed for the external ballistics calculations.
