1.Fans: If you want to fix flow (volumetric or mass rate) use external fans. External fans can only be used on domain boundaries (namely, cabinet and hollow block surfaces). Fans may also be used to specify flow nased on a fan curve. If the fan lies interior to domain boundary, use internal. You cannot fix flow on internal fans.
(Internal风扇不可以设置成fix flow,External风扇可以设置成fix flow,但只能用在求解边界。)
2.Resistance: If you want to model a porous planar structure interior to the domain. When the loss coefficient is 0, the resistance is equivalent to an opening.
3.Opening: Openings allow flow to pass through them. In addition you can also impose velocity, pressure and temperature distribution of flow. However, in order to impose a distribution, the opening must lie on domain boundary.
Intake和Exhaust只能放置于计算区域Cabinet和Hollow Block的边界;Intake表示从计算区域外侧向内侧吹风;Exhaust表示从计算区域内侧向外抽风;而Internal类型的风机必需放置于计算区域内部。
注意:三类风机都可以输入风机的风量风压P-Q曲线,但是Fixed固定流量选项,只适合于Intake和Exhaust风机。如果风机是Internal类型,那么在Flow flow中,只能选择使用Linear或者Non-linear才能输入风机的P-Q曲线。Internal内部风机具体的流量,是ANSYS/Icepak通过系统的阻力及风机的P-Q曲线计算,才能得到内部风机给系统提供的压力和流量,即风机的真实工作点。
Operating RPM:表示风机的工作转速。一般情况下,通过风机的说明书能得到风机额定转速的P-Q曲线。如果想输入其他转速的P-Q曲线,则需要通过手动计算,将相应转速下的P-Q曲线计算出来,才能进行热模拟计算。针对此情况,ANSYS/Icepak提供了简单的计算方法,工程师可以在Fan flow中输入额定转速的P-Q曲线,在Swirl处输入额定转速,在Operating RPM处输入风机新的转速,在CFD计算过程中,ANSYS/Icepak会自动将额定转速的P-Q曲线,更新为新转速的P-Q曲线。
