    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
Philippe

Thread 'Gauss' law seems to imply instantaneous electric field'

Imagine a charged sphere at the origin connected through an open switch to a vertical grounded wire. We wish to find an expression for the horizontal component of the electric field at a distance ##\mathbf{r}## from the sphere as it discharges. By using the Lorenz gauge condition: $$\nabla \cdot \mathbf{A} + \frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t}=0\tag{1}$$ we find the following retarded solutions to the Maxwell equations If we assume that...

Thread 'Do electron density waves accompany EM waves in coaxial cables?'

Maxwell’s equations imply the following wave equation for the electric field $$\nabla^2\mathbf{E}-\frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial^2\mathbf{E}}{\partial t^2} = \frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}\nabla\rho+\mu_0\frac{\partial\mathbf J}{\partial t}.\tag{1}$$ I wonder if eqn.##(1)## can be split into the following transverse part $$\nabla^2\mathbf{E}_T-\frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial^2\mathbf{E}_T}{\partial t^2} = \mu_0\frac{\partial\mathbf{J}_T}{\partial t}\tag{2}$$ and longitudinal part...

Thread 'Recovering Hamilton's Equations from Poisson brackets'

Thread 'Recovering Hamilton's Equations from Poisson brackets'

The issue : Let me start by copying and pasting the relevant passage from the text, thanks to modern day methods of computing. The trouble is, in equation (4.79), it completely ignores the partial derivative of ##q_i## with respect to time, i.e. it puts ##\partial q_i/\partial t=0##. But ##q_i## is a dynamical variable of ##t##, or ##q_i(t)##. In the derivation of Hamilton's equations from the Hamiltonian, viz. ##H = p_i \dot q_i-L##, nowhere did we assume that ##\partial q_i/\partial...
