#FLUID DYNAMICS

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE'S AN APPLICATION THAT CAN SIMULATE FLUID
DYNAMICS.
THANKS
Antonio – There's fluid dynamics applications available on platforms such as
the Sun SparcStation, and the Silicon Graphics IRIS line, but I'm not aware
of any running under DOS. Then again, I'm not terribly familiar with any of
this stuff to begin with. You might try posting your question over on the
LEAP (League for Engineering Automation Productivity) Forum, just type GO LEAP
at any CIS prompt.

Antonio,
First off, let me say, I like your name (if my new baby was a boy, his name
would have been Antonio, but her name is Aria Leanna).
Someone else was just recently asking on LEAP about the same think
(kind'a). That person wanted to model and estimate the fluid flow thru a
nozzle for "spray pattern" analysis. After some probing questins, the
result was that they couldn't (or didn't want to) afford the solution. I
hate to answer a question with a question, but here is goes?
What do you want to model? At what speed? What is the medium? At what
Reynolds number? Are we talking "pipe flow" or "free stream" around a
"body"? … and most importantly "What do you want to know after the
analysis (lift & drag, separation, transistion, flow visualization,
potential drop, etc..)?" .. don't tell me "all of the above" <G>
These questions are vital in the determination of the appropriate practical
and theoretical approach you will need to take and therefore, what software
will be necessary. Send me some MAIL or call me at (301) 236-5425 EST and
we can discuss it further.
In wonder of it all ….
