vortex induced vibration from dynamic mesh
 

hi ,everyone
i m new user in cfd ,my problem is to simulate oscillation of horizontal cylinder due to vortex induced vibration,i cant use any udf because i cant defined my cylinder motion ,because it is induced motion due to viv ,i have to use dynamic mesh with animation ,can anyone help regarding this problem
thanks:)

please specify the dimensions of pipe, span, gap and current velocity. if you have ICEM cfd software, maybe I can help you. because right now I am doing the same project!!!

my domain is 50d*40d ,d is dia of cylinder which is 15 cm,actually i want to know about whether fluent will be able to detect condition of resonance,
and if u(amir ) dont mind can u give me ur email id then our conversation will be easy

Hi,
Recently, I've modeled 2D VIV for circular cylinder with CFX 12.1. you can send email to me if the case is interesting for you!
