Ansys Fluent: Savonius Turbine Using Dynamic Mesh

Simulation of the savonius wind turbine, using the dynamic mesh to calculate the angular acceleration and simulate the movement of the turbine.

How to obtain the graph of Cp vs TSR in this case from the result ?

great video!!!

Hi Fluent Setup. This is an amazing video. I have a question for you. I am taking a course in CFD and mesh generation . I just did the elbow mixing tutorial from the fluent manual. However i am working now on a savonius turbine project at the university as a student. How much effort do you think it would take for me to setup a simulation like you did in this video? And what about the computational resources you need?

Hi, how do you avoid negative cell volume problem? Mine always collapses before it even get to move steadily. Thanks.

Hi I'm pretty new to ANSYS and was wondering if you could tell me how to apply a reactionary torque to the turbine to represent resistance from a genertor

[@vivejk4443]

hi, your videos are truly aweome and helpful. i have a question. how do you compile your udf so easily? for me, i have to open VS2017 command prompt and open fluent through that and then still i get errors.
how can you compile so easily? it would be truly amazing if you made a video of that or at least reply in this comment.
Thanks in advance

I used to have problems compiling the udf. I don't know if this will help you fix your issue, but it wouldn't hurt to tale a look: th-cam.com/video/xt2hnE9_LdM/w-d-xo.html
I don't know much about these technical issues, so that is all the help I can offer, I hope it helps.

Still no src and trg terms are appearing in boundary conditions tab of setup. Good morning Mr.
I did the same as you did in your video, but Mesh_interfaces are not created in my case. Still no src and trg terms are appearing in boundary conditions tab of setup
I tried thrice Can you please help me
i tried with ansys 2023 R2 and 2024 R1 student version but i have same problem
please help me please please i need a simulation like this for my graduation project urgently

[@Kuldeepx]

Hi Thanks for the video. I have few questions. When I tried to simulate the same there is no flow in interior zone of my simulation and in zones I don't see contacts (there is only inlet, outlet ant others). Do I have to manually assign the contact between interior and exterior zone?

[@muhammedcelikyurek448]

Hi.I have the same problem.Did you solve it.

[@gecko_ecco2017]

any of you solved that issue?

[@zhengxin1835]

Change the analysis type from 3d to 2d

Watch the video from 4:35 to 4:38. You may miss it

Cool vidio, how to calculate RPM if turbine hit by wind?

[@alfaageng]

Hi bro is it okay to assumed two dimensional torque and rpm result are same as three dimensional one?

[@alializadeh8195]

Thanx

[@EngineeringwithRosie]

Hi, would you mind if I used the last few seconds of this video in one I am making? I will credit you onscreen and link to your video in the description.

[@fluentsetup1232]

Sure, I think I saw a few of your videos to clear some doubts I had on VAWTs while making some simulations, so go ahead.

[@EngineeringwithRosie]

@@fluentsetup1232 awesome, thanks so much!

[@makavelli9705]

Hey man, i wanted to ask you could i contact you so you might check my 6DOF wind turbine setup?. I am currently stuck on updating mesh at time level N. Maybe you could help me fix it.

[@yacineboumekouez7718]

hello can you send the geometry please

[@khadijarahal3610]
