I am new to CFD. I have created the CAD model of savonius turbine (link given above). I want help with mesh creation, what should i do for (pick volumes, pick surface)for mesh creation. (external flow for Savonius wind turbine), simulation designer for various properties like velocity, force, average area scalar transport etc. Can some one create a mesh for this model and do a simple simulation, which i could keep as reference, confused with all the menu, selections.
Very nice application! Do you want to perform a flow induced CFD analysis?
As far as I have seen your geometry had a closed section on one side of the turbine and consisted of three layers. In order to avoid meshing issues I would keep it simple and build it with “one layer”. Could you re-upload your geometry in order to have a closer look at it? Would be great!
Thanks a lot for having a look at the proiect @ojagtap!
As he mentioned you need to put a cylinder domain around your model to use Rotating Zones. As soon as you have uploaded an updated model we can proceed with the simulation. Would be nice if you and @ojagtap can work on that and swap some ideas
