Uploaded the part to the <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE platform. Saved the part in a Collaborative space. Used an existing Bookmark. Returned to the active SOLIDWORKS desktop. Locked the part.<\/p>\n<p>Launched the Fluid Scenario Creation App. Created the FE Model or FEM. Used the Assistant dialog box and the Action toolbar.<\/p>\n<p>Defined a fluid region internal to the model. Defined the fluid (Air). Specified the physics behavior of the fluid. Customized the Hex-dominant mesh.<\/p>\n<p>Applied boundary conditions (inlet\/outlet). Created output requests to collect pressure, flow velocity and mass flow results.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we ran the Simulation study and saved the Physics Simulation study to a Collaborative space on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.<\/p>\n<p>In this lesson, open a SOLIDWORKS session. Connect to the <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE platform. Utilize the 3DSpace widget from the MySession panel in the SOLIDWORKS Task Pane.<\/p>\n<p>Your <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE | 3DDashboard is displayed. Locate the Physics Simulation study named, Duct in the saved Collaborative space.<\/p>\n<p>Launch the Fluid Scenario Creation App. Open the Duct Physics Simulation study. View the last displayed contour plot. Display a cross-section of the mesh. Explore the Mesh Visualization options.<\/p>\n<p>Create two sensors. Place a sensor for mass flow at each opening to confirm that the Simulation study converged properly. Add streamlines to illustrate flow through the Duct.<\/p>\n<p>Modify the flow fluid from Air to Nitrogen. Modify the Air object under Scenario.<\/p>\n<p>Re-run the study.

Airflow is laminar at the inlet but becomes mixed as it passes through the duct. This turbulence is a result of abrupt turns in the duct design.

A stream is a set of streamlines that enable you to visualize the velocity in an analysis. Use the defaults to define the scope and density. The scope definition tells Physics Results Explorer to display streamlines for the whole model or for the current display group only.
