AbstractNumerical simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method is one way of predicting airflow characteristics on the model. This method is widely used because it is relatively inexpensive and faster in getting desired results compared with performing direct testing. The correctness of a computational simulation output is highly dependent on the input and how it was processed. In this paper, simulation is done on Onera M6 Wing, to investigate the effect of a turbulence model’s application on the accuracy of the computational result. The choice of Onera M6 Wing as a simulation’s model is due to its extensive database of testing results from various wind tunnels in the world. Among Turbulence models used are Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, and SST.Keywords: CFD, fluent, Model, Turbulence, Onera M6, Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, SST.AbstraksSimulasi numerik dengan menggunakan metode Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) merupakan salah satu cara untuk memprediksi karakteristik suatu aliran udara yang terjadi pada model.

This paper describes measurement of the aerodynamic pressures produced by a Bombardier High-Speed Non-Electric Locomotive (HSNEL) on an adjacent stationary double-stack freight car. Static pressures are measured on the near and far-side faces of the freight containers over a range of locomotive speeds from 60 to 130 mph. This data is also compared with the pressures predicted by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.

In order to enhance the operational safety of tram vehicle and reduce the wear of guide wheels mounted on the vehicle, it is necessary to remove particles such as dusts and silts from tramway surface. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of street vacuum sweeper for sucking up dusts from tramway surface. A numerical model was developed based on dusts removal process. Under different pressure drops across the pickup head of the street vacuum sweeper, the flow field and dusts removal efficiency were analyzed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The numerical results show that a higher pressure drop can improve the airflow field in the pickup head and results in higher dusts removal efficiency, but higher pressure drop definitely need more energy. Therefore, a balance should be taken into consideration.

Hovercraft operates on multi-terrains such as on water surface, on roads, on mud, on non-flat surfaces... it is used popular on the world. With the ability of operating on multi-terrains at high speed, hovercraft is used for many purposes, such as on surveying and rescues missions on areas that are not reachable by normal vehicles, on military missions and traveling... Currently, methods for estimating hovercraft resistance are not accurate enough due to many experiential formulae and coefficients involved during calculating process. This paper presents a method for calculating hovercraft resistance using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools. This research method is used popular and modern research method on the world. The method was applied for calculating resistance of a 7 meters length hovercraft model. The modelling results give us suggestions in selecting engine power and operating speeds for minimizing fuel consumption.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mensimulasikan distribusi temperatur dengan variasi radius channel garam dan temperatur masukan pada teras Molten Salt Breeder Reactor (MSBR). Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) dengan perangkat lunak Ansys Fluent digunakan pada simulasi ini untuk sebuah sel moderator. Variasi radius channel garam adalah 0,0108 m; 0,0208; dan 0,0308 m dengan panjang moderator 3,96 m. Variasi temperatur masukan adalah 809 K, 839 K, 859 K, dan 909 K. Hasil simulasi pada variasi radius menunjukkan bahwa dengan pertambahan sebesar 0,01 m memberikan kenaikan suhu sebesar 8 - 23 K pada temperatur masukan konstan. Perubahan terhadap temperatur masukan, diperoleh kenaikan temperatur keluaran antara 1 - 10 K, pada radius channel garam yang konstan. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa distribusi temperatur dalam teras MSBR akan meningkat jika radius channel garam diperkecil atau temperatur masukan dinaikkan.

A crack with unusual failure mode after thermal shock test (TST) is observed on the die bulk of certain bare-die FCBGA, in which the crack penetrates longitudinally within silicon die region. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is introduced to investigate this phenomenon. The transient analysis results indicate a significant temperature difference existing between top and bottom surfaces of the silicon die in the very beginning of the liquid-to-liquid temperature transition. This could be fatal to a brittle material like silicon. Some possible solutions are then surveyed to alleviate the thermal impact to the FCBGA. At least one of enhanced proposals is proved effective to eliminate die crack occurrence after TST.
