AI Thread Summary
Increasing mesh density around the boundaries of the aircraft wing in a CFD simulation will enhance the accuracy of capturing forces like velocity and pressure on the velocity map and added streamlines. Higher mesh density is particularly beneficial in areas where the flow velocity changes rapidly. However, this improvement comes at the cost of longer simulation times. It is crucial to balance mesh density with computational resources to optimize results. Ultimately, refining the mesh can lead to more reliable CFD outcomes.

Im running a CFD simulation. Looking at improve my CFD simulation. my mesh is currently low density.

Q) Would increasing mesh density around the boundaries of the air craft wing capture the forces (velcoty & pressure) on my velocity map and added streamlines.

Yes, increasing the mesh density near the edges would increase the accuracy of the simulation. It will also slow down the simulation.
You need the greatest mesh density where the velocity of the flow changes fastest.
 

Thread '2:1 Pulley Question'

I have Mass A being pulled vertically. I have Mass B on an incline that is pulling Mass A. There is a 2:1 pulley between them. The math I'm using is: FA = MA / 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If MB is greater then FA, it pulls FA up as MB moves down the incline. BUT... If I reverse the 2:1 pulley. Then the math changes to... FA = MA * 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If FA is greater then MB, it pulls MB up the incline as FA moves down. It's confusing...

Thread 'Why do all my clocks run slow?'

Hi. I noticed that all electronic devices in my household that also tell time eventually lag behind, except the ones that get synchronized by radio signal or internet. Most of them are battery-powered, except my alarm clock (which runs slow as well). Why does none of them run too fast? Deliberate design (why)? Wrong temperature for quartz crystal? Decreasing battery voltage? Or just a coincidence?
