Hello. I'm going to simulate a 3 and 4 bladed aircraft propeller encountered with side flow. Can anybody out there help me to get some idea to simulate this propeller? I've used MRF before, however I got negative lift result. For your information, Fluent 6.1 was used to simulate this propeller?

yes you can do it very simple. once you have the geometry all you have to do is to put your propeller into a cilinder and give a rotation mouvement to the reference. in the tutorials you can find a model for rotor stator flow. is the same thing only that your rotor is the propeler and the stator is the plane. yes i've done a hovercraft propeler in fluent and those ware happy with the results

Hi . i want to do propeller simulation in CFD and then extract results like
VORTEX INTERACTION THRUST DISTRIBUTION PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION VELOCITY CONTOURS etc So plz guide me how can i do it i.e Meshing type ?? boundary conditions in FLUENT ???? . REGARDS Pro-engineer you can email me also sir at twinklingbeacon@gmail.com |

hi ,
im working on a simulation of a helicopter propeller in FLUENT, I would want to understand what is the kind of mesh domain that is most suitable for this kind of a problem...also can u please help me as in how to set up the model in fluent...What kind of technique is being used for rotating elements and how to set up the problem..Thanks a ton... |
