Help on Aerodynamic load

lamboram · July 16, 2011, 11:57

I am asked to analyse an air flow across a cross section. The wind blows in a certain velocity and creates some loads on the walls of the surface under consideration. I will later use this load by the air for structural analysis.

I have made a 2D model, applied boundary condition, but how to bring out the load by the air flowing across. Please help.

Hi Ramesh

You need to extract the surface pressure distribution of the surface under consideration!! From there you can calculate your loads!

Sincerely,
