Click For Summary
Writing a simple Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code involves several key steps, including grid generation, solver development, and post-processing of results. Starting with a quasi-1D code is recommended as it simplifies the process and can be completed in about a month with the right knowledge. The complexity of CFD coding is comparable to a Ph.D. dissertation, indicating the depth of understanding required. For resources, it's suggested to look for websites that provide sample codes to aid in learning. Overall, developing a basic CFD code requires careful planning and foundational knowledge in fluid dynamics.

Dear all, Anyone can tell me about the algorithm to write a simple CFD code to solve a flow problem.starting from grid gen, solver,post results. pls refer some site providing sample codes.

Your question on grid generation, while vague, is approachable. What you're asking here is roughly the equivalent of a Ph.D. dissertation.

Perhaps you could start with a quasi-1D code first? A code like that could take as little as a months or so to write given you know what you're doing.
 

Thread 'UV filter for home central heating?'

Had my central air system checked when it sortta wasn't working. I guess I hadn't replaced the filter. Guy suggested I might want to get a UV filter accessory. He said it would "kill bugs and particulates". I know UV can kill the former, not sure how he thinks it's gonna murder the latter. Now I'm finding out there's more than one type of UV filter: one for the air flow and one for the coil. He was suggesting we might get one for the air flow, but now we'll have to change the bulb...
