By focusing on setting up boundary conditions accurately and understanding how to interpret visual results, you can apply the techniques in these tutorials to any version of SOLIDWORKS, helping you design more efficient, reliable products.
Choosing from a pre-defined library of gases, liquids, steam, or non-Newtonian fluids. Insert another Boundary Condition
Used for aerodynamics (wings, cars) or electronics cooling. You must define a computational domain (a box around the object) that the fluid flows through. 2. Fluid Type and Flow Regimes SOLIDWORKS 2012 allows for: Laminar, Turbulent, or Laminar/Turbulent flows. Newtonian or Non-Newtonian fluids.
Flow Trajectories give you a dynamic, 3D visualization of the fluid pathway. Right-click . Select the inlet face as your starting point. Adjust the number of points (lines) to 50 or 100. [Wizard Start] ➔ [Select Units] ➔ [Analysis Type]
: This means your internal model is not airtight. Use the Tools > Flow Simulation > Tools > Check Geometry tool to find leaks, or use the Create Lids tool to cap open pipe ends.
Click the icon. Name the project "Pipe_Pressure_Drop". Select SI units . Choose Internal Analysis . Select Water as the fluid. Keep default wall parameters and click Finish . Step 3: Insert Boundary Conditions
One of the most advanced features in 2012 was the "Rotating Region." The PDF includes a tutorial on a desk fan.
