Hello! Has anyone used any CFD software to simulate E.D coating of a car BIW? If yes, can someone let me know what software, steady or transient, fluid properties, newtonian, or any other advise?

OK will check! In the meantime... is this type of analysis valid using CFD though? Electro-charged fluid... similar to plasma? Do we need a different code to do this reliably? How often is this ED simulation performed in industry or how reliable is it?
Thanks for your great responses on this website, Peter! |

OK,
I remember the presentation as electro coating of a complete BIW and a separate animation of a truck cab in a dip tank. This was the keynote presentation at the 2007 London conference. The fifth photo in the gallery is clearly readable as DaimlerChrysler and paint coating is visible as well. I have just checked this by playing the conference proceedings on my machine. Plasma coating is a different beast. I suspect that CD is probably sponsoring a Ph.D. somewhere on this subject. I can remember a conversation a few years ago with the former marketing director at CD London on this one. This conversation was based on plasma spraying of components in a vacuum. Call adapco on this one. Regards Peter |
