    Air Software
AI Thread Summary
Free airflow simulation software is sought for analyzing air flow in pipes, specifically to understand the effects of shapes like elbows and reducers. Users suggest looking into duct calculators for basic data like pressure and velocity. The discussion highlights a need for software that can model flow perturbations caused by various pipe shapes. There is an emphasis on finding free solutions suitable for engine improvement projects. Overall, the search is for effective tools to simulate airflow dynamics in engineering applications.

Hello
May someone tell me if there's a software to simulate air flowing in a pipe (free software)
best regards from France

I'm not sure what you mean by "simulate", but if you're just looking for the various relevant pieces of data (static/dynamic pressure, velocity, pressure drop, etc), Google a "ductulator" or "duct calculator".
 
I'd like to have an idea of what are the pertubations generated by "objects"/"shapes" in a pipe during air flowing...
 
Are you referring to flow past immersed bodies or perturbations due to elbows, reducers, etc...?
 
yes, due to elbows, reducers, etc...?
i'm planning some improvements on my engine during rebuild...
thanks

Thread 'The Effect of Linear and Rotational Motion on Measured Weight'

Consider an extremely long and perfectly calibrated scale. A car with a mass of 1000 kg is placed on it, and the scale registers this weight accurately. Now, suppose the car begins to move, reaching very high speeds. Neglecting air resistance and rolling friction, if the car attains, for example, a velocity of 500 km/h, will the scale still indicate a weight corresponding to 1000 kg, or will the measured value decrease as a result of the motion? In a second scenario, imagine a person with a...

Thread 'Simple thought experiment with Stefan-Boltzmann law: energy'

Dear all, in an encounter of an infamous claim by Gerlich and Tscheuschner that the Greenhouse effect is inconsistent with the 2nd law of thermodynamics I came to a simple thought experiment which I wanted to share with you to check my understanding and brush up my knowledge. The thought experiment I tried to calculate through is as follows. I have a sphere (1) with radius ##r##, acting like a black body at a temperature of exactly ##T_1 = 500 K##. With Stefan-Boltzmann you can calculate...

Thread 'Griffith, Electrodynamics, 4th Edition, Example 4.8. (First part)'

I am reading the Griffith, Electrodynamics book, 4th edition, Example 4.8 and stuck at some statements. It's little bit confused. > Example 4.8. Suppose the entire region below the plane ##z=0## in Fig. 4.28 is filled with uniform linear dielectric material of susceptibility ##\chi_e##. Calculate the force on a point charge ##q## situated a distance ##d## above the origin. Solution : The surface bound charge on the ##xy## plane is of opposite sign to ##q##, so the force will be...
