Solidworks flow simulations 01| Pipe flow CFD analysis


Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of a pipe flow will be conducted using solidowrks flow simulations tool.
An aluminum pipe having diameter 50mm and thickness 2mm has wall temperature of 40°C has water flow at its inlet with flow rate 0.001 kg/s. Water inlet temperature is 20°C. Determine increase in water temperature at center line of pipe and at different sections of pipe length.
This is a step by step solidworks tutorial to give introduction to solidworks flow simulations, you will also learn how make temperature XY plots.
