dear members,
can I do oil flow simulation in rotating gearbox for Powertrain in AcuSolve? (as the picture from nanoFluidX)
I want to have a try in AcuSolve, but I have only little knowelege about CFD.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
This type of simulation is possible in NanoFluidX, as it based upon Smoothened particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method.
AcuSolve is a FEM based solver that needs a mesh. Such gears,have a contact issue, where mesh based solvers would have problems. You'll have to go for NFX.
Dear all,
I have not found a topic which deals with a simulation of oil flow in a gearbox in NanofluidX. I have prepared such a model which works fine. What I miss is a possibility to monitor how well the gears or bearings in the gearbox are oiled. Something like an average oil fraction on a surface. I would like to compare different oil levels and different geometrical variants of oil channels. For that I would need some quantification how well each model works. Paraview is good for visualisations, however I could not find any quantification factor (how many oil particles penetrate a specified section or block). Is there anyone who could help me with it?
Thank you in advance.
Miroslav
It's probably best if you contact your local Altair or Reseller support team. They can put you in touch with the appropriate nanoFluidX support staff.
