Simple Approximation of Fluid Flows using Ansys Fluent
This teaching package covers how Navier Stokes equations can be transformed into simplified versions for certain flow problems by using assumptions like reduced dimensionality, incompressibility, inviscid and irrotationality. These simplified equations can then be solved to obtain analytical solutions. It also includes simulation examples using Ansys Fluent to demonstrate these concepts.
