This document outlines the key steps for setting up a CFD simulation: (1) selecting the appropriate solvers and equations, (2) specifying material properties for fluids and solids, (3) applying boundary conditions like inlet/outlet velocities and temperatures, wall properties, and domain conditions, (4) choosing solution controls such as discretization schemes, under-relaxation factors, and pressure correction methods.

a) Selecting the appropriate solvers i) Pressure based b) Selecting the mathematical equations to be solved Steady state turbulent flow

equations Energy equation c) Selecting the material properties i) Fluid Material (Water, air ) ii) Solid Material (Copper, Aluminum ) d) Assigning appropriate boundary conditions i) Inlet Boundary: - Example 1 : Velocity Inlet with 10 m/s and normal to boundary - Example 2: Total pressure at inlet = 101325 Pa (Gauge) - Example 3: Mass flow rate at inlet = 12 Kg/s ii) Outlet Boundary - Example 1 : Pressure at outlet = 0 (Gauge) - Example 2 : Mass flow at outlet = 10.2 Kg/s - Example 3 : 50 % flow is going out of the outlet iii) Wall Boundary - Example 1 : Adiabatic and no slip boundary - Example 2 : Constant temperature 400 K and no slip boundary iv) Fluid domain conditions - Example 1 : Working media is air and domain is rotating with 1000 rpm - Example 2: Working media is water v) Solid domain conditions

- Example 1 : Heat generation rate in solid = 20 W/m3 Any many more depending on the problem that you are simulating e) Selecting the Solutions controls i) Selecting discritization schemes - Example : 1st order for pressure and 2nd order for density ii) Selecting under relaxation factors iii) Selecting pressure correction methods - SIMPLE/SIMPLEC/PISO
