Open Source Design: Mosquito Trap

mikaelarhelger · December 18, 2018, 11:32

Hello, In anticipation of the issues at hand, I like to launch an Open Source Project: Mosquito Trap. One aspect is CFD in order to simulate the airflow within the trap. The function would be as follows:

Air intake
Mix of air with pheromone
Exit of air mixed with pheromone towards the top

Are the people interested to take this on with me?

Here is a YouTube video of pheremones over a backward facing step, only the result shown. Now replace the domain with your mosquito trap.

Just pull out your favorite CFD program and do a tutorial.

I am not sure nor familiar with CFD applications, I am afraid. This project, I was hopeful to involve many people to make it truly Open and successful. It seems impossible...

I am familiar with CFD ,so its bit confusing for me to use it or not.
