Hello to everyone,

As I mentioned in the title I need help with simulation of intake manifold flow using SolidWorks flow simulation. I am sure most of you have seen this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi8I4-Rpwio. I tried to apply the method from the video to my model. I copied the exact pressure/time tables from the video and followed the instructions, but when I run the solver I receive the error message: "Vortex crosses the pressure opening" and the values of this error are to great to be ignored and the results are far from real. I tried to simplify everything and created simple tube with inlet and outlet and run the simulation, changed the pressure values several time and every time and I got the same error message every time.

Can someone help me resolve this problem. I need to know what is this error message and why it appears. and how to overcome it.

If there are interested people I will provide the needed files.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Gerogi,

Greetings from Workshopwale Team!!

As you already know, softwares are just CFD tools and one can use different brands unless he/she are obsessed with any particular one.

We can help you with OpenFOAM. OpenFOAM is a open-source software and completely free to use even for commercial purpose.

If this suits your requirements, you can send your requirements to http://workshopwale.com/ or write us at: adarsh@workshopwale.com.
Awaiting a positive response from your end.
Regards,
