This model exemplifies the analysis of strong wind flow around a solar panel and the corresponding structural displacement due to the wind's load. The solar panel is located in an array of equally spaced identical panels, which allows for the assumption that the periodic flow conditions ... Read More
This model couples the Navier Stokes equations and the heat transfer equations to examine density driven flow of free fluids. Here the fluid is in a square cavity with a heated wall. The buoyancy force is a Boussinesq term added to the Navier-Stokes equations. The equation is ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates the use of the Heat and Moisture Flow predefined interface for the modeling of heat transfer and moisture transport in a turbulent air flow, with the quantification of evaporation and condensation on surfaces, and the automatic handling of the associated latent ...

Commercial heat exchangers often feature a complex design. It is significantly easier to build a design with new CAD parameters than to build designs with novel topologies. This model demonstrate how to optimize the size and position of the tubes in a tube and shell heat exchanger. It is ... Read More
This example treats a pulmonary artery stenosis as a porous medium and demonstrates how to set up a model that combines free and porous media flow of a non-Newtonian fluid. The non-Newtonian behavior of blood is modeled using the Carreau model. Read More
Many complex fluids of interest exhibit a combination of viscous and elastic behavior under strain. Examples of such fluids are polymer solutions and melts, oil, toothpaste, and clay, among many others. The Oldroyd-B fluid presents one of the simplest constitutive models capable of ... Read More
In this tutorial model, the flow in a pipe with a bend is computed using the Pipe Flow interface. The computed fluid load is used as input to a stress analysis in the Pipe Mechanics interface. Gravity loads from the pipe and fluid are also taken into account. Read More
This example models flow in a microchannel heat exchanger by coupling a Laminar Flow interface in 3D to a Pipe Flow interface. By the use of the Pipe Flow interface to model the flow in the microchannels the problem size is significantly reduced. This model showcases the Pipe Connection ... Read More
