Simulating a fan using a cylinder

Hi All
I am simulating a fan that cools an electronic equipment inside a column. To simulate the fan On FLUENT, I have used a thin cylindrical geometry with fan boundary conditions from both sides of the cylinder. In the inlet it's "Fan Intake" and the outlet is "Fan Exhaust). I am not sure if someone could share his experience on the best way of modeling this. The purpose of my study is to see how the cooling is performed, it does not really matter to see the flow across the fan. Thanks a lot Last edited by Kaptene; March 29, 2021 at 11:46. |
