Abstract:The use of Computational Fluid Dynamics as a tool for design and analysis of aerospace systems is well established. Since the results generated by a CFD solver are numerical approximations, the solution is inherently produced with errors and uncertainties. In this paper, a simple fluid flow problem of laminar, incompressible flow past a circular cylinder at Reynolds number of 20 is allowed to be solved by the well-known finite-volume solver ANSYS Fluent. The effect of variations in mesh resolution, domain boun… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
