Simulation Set up on a turbine

[david_connolly]

Hi,

I am having difficulties in setting up a simulation for a turbine I designed in fusion, if someone could provide me a step by step to complete this simulation it would be much appreciated as I have deadline coming up next for it in my college.

I am just looking to observe how to the airflow reacts with the blades of the turbine.

Hi @david_connolly,

Thanks for posting your question. The first step would be creating a flow region and the rotating zone for the impeller. This tutorial gives you the step by step process for doing it: Rotating Zones Drone Simulation | Tutorial | SimScale

Here you also find a very similar setup that you can use as guide after reading/following the tutorial.

best,

Hi,
I M BEING PROMPTED WITH THIS ERROR WHEN TRY TO SIMULATE f
I am being prompted with this error when i try to run the simulation ? any idea what is wrong ?

Below are images of set up:

Hi again @david_connolly,

It seems that you forgot to delete the solid part from the flow volume.

Hi goncalves,

This is the latest error i am faced with following your instructions in the last post.

as a piont of interest why must i delete the solid from the project? how do i get data about the blades of the turbine ?
