The Design – Analysis of Turbulent Air Flow Over Cylinder Slot Hole | ANSYS Fluent

• Motion and power transmission:
  • Shafts and couplings: Cylindrical shafts often require keyways (a type of slot) to hold a gear or pulley securely, preventing rotational slippage.
  • Pistons and rods: Hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders use pistons and rods that feature holes for fluid passage or slots for alignment and connection to other components.
  • Automotive engines: Engine components, such as pistons and engine cylinders, feature precisely machined holes and slots for critical functions like oil flow and combustion.
• Fluid and gas systems:
  • Piping and connectors: Pipes and fluid couplings use cylindrical parts with holes for fittings, slots for pressure relief, and channels for fluid diversion.
  • Valves and fittings: Components in fluid control systems frequently incorporate cylindrical bodies with ports (holes) to direct or regulate the flow of gas or liquid.
• Fixtures and tooling:
  • Jigs and fixtures: In manufacturing, cylindrical fixtures may have holes and slots to guide tools or secure workpieces during machining.
  • Industrial machinery: Parts for industrial presses, cutting machines, and automated assembly systems use slotted and holed cylinders for precise alignment and movement.
• Medical and robotics:
  • Surgical devices: Precision medical instruments and robotic joints use small, intricately slotted, and holed cylindrical parts for compact motion and specialized functions. 

This analysis has tried to simulate and analyze of Turbulent Air Flow Over Cylinder Slot Hole using ANSYS Fluent software.

Geometry & Grid

The geometry required for this analysis was generated by Ansys Design Modeler software. The meshing required for this analysis was also generated by Ansys Meshing software. The mesh type used in this analysis is unstructured. The total number of volume properties for geometry is 3,5e+005 mm³.

Model

In this analysis, the k-epsilon (2 equation) turbulence viscosity model is used to check the fluid flow. The standard wall function is used near the wall.

Boundary Condition

The flow of primary input design modeler geometry for this analysis is considered as velocity magnitude and is 20 (m/s). The flow output range is also considered as a pressure outlet for the flow output region and gauge pressure is equal to 0 (pascal). The wall is also considered a Stationary Wall.

Sizing

According to the type of flow, the Coupled algorithm is used to discretize the Pressure-Velocity Coupling of the solution method. The turbulent kinetic energy and the turbulent dissipation rate has been discretized in the Second Order Upwind.

The results are presented as Turbulent Kinetic Energy.Gradient Z contours as well as streamlines.
