1 ResultThis project involves a comprehensive finite element method (FEM) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of a rocket fin. Utilizing the SimScale platform, the study is divided into two primary phases: Structural Evaluation (FEM): Assessing the mechanical integrity of the fin by applying fixed supports and aerodynamic loads to calculate Von Mises stress, total deformation, and the factor of safety against material yielding. Aerodynamic Evaluation (CFD): Analyzing the external flow domain around the fin to visualize pressure contours, velocity streamlines, and wake formation, ultimately determining drag and aerodynamic stability. Methodology & Optimization: The workflow includes a comparative mesh sensitivity study (coarse, medium, and fine) to ensure computational accuracy, alongside an engineering design optimization task to reduce structural stress or aerodynamic drag.
