A combination of CFD and FEA simulations can be used to predict the deformation of structures following the force exerted by the surrounding fluid flow. The results(pressure values) obtained by the flow analysis can be used as input values(force value) for the structural analysis. This technique can be used to get very accurate results in the following sectors.
The analysis will study the performance of Cooling Towers and provides insight to optimize the flow profile.
The analysis will study fluid mixing inside a storage tank and would help in enhancing the fluid mixing for better temperature or particle distribution.
Fluid flow of different nozzles can be studied and changes can be made to the geometry to improve the performance.
