    digital flow benching, smoke query-esque.... sorta thing....

    We've already ordered some chemicals to cook up... Thats one of the plan B's

    digital flow benching, smoke query-esque.... sorta thing....

    Hiya Franz. It was basically a vacuum cleaner and a smoke machine to test the theory and get an idea of smoke visulisation... The next step is really lighting and combustable smoke, rather than smoke machine generated smoke. The issue is, it has to be at a high speed, as the flow bench...

    No, thats some lovely stuff to be looking at, thanks.

    Yeah... Ive got a photography student coming to give me a hand. And we havent tried it mounted in the flow bench room, which only has flouresent lighting... So its possible we can use varied spotlights, etc... just looking for "Plan B's"

    digital flow benching, smoke query-esque.... sorta thing....

    Hi all... Basically I have a slight issue. As a Uni assignment we were asked to flow a head. Fine and done... But I decided that what would be far better was validate a CFD model where I can do all the work digitally, including modifications. As part of this, Ive made (and are continuing to...

    NX7.5... How would i be able to model a representation of twisted acrylic tube?

    Quick work! ... Thats exactly what I meant. Even better... I think ive worked out how you did it... Thank you very much, Mr Baker.

    NX7.5... How would i be able to model a representation of twisted acrylic tube?

    Im not sure if theres specific subtypes, but the Uni uses 7.5 and im told, with full licences...

    NX7.5... How would i be able to model a representation of twisted acrylic tube?

    Hahaha... Its no assignment, I dont actually start back till Oct... But I can see where youre coming from. Its a project im running to validate some work I want to do to a VFR750 head (granted, in uni... but not as part of any assignment). I believe we DO get a cad assignment this year, but its...

    NX7.5... How would i be able to model a representation of twisted acrylic tube?

    Not as weird as it seems, I promise... Basically, for this years project at uni, I'm starting some CFD validation using NX. (And Ansys) Using the flowbench, smoke, some sensors and some acrylic tube I'm trying to model basic port geometry and validate NX's cfd solver. As part of this im trying...

    C.F.D. questions and view options in NX7.5,... Very simple question I'm sure.

    Thats brilliant, cheers. I still cant work out how to find flow rates, but I'll keep poking about.

    C.F.D. questions and view options in NX7.5,... Very simple question I'm sure.

    Hi there... Apologies for the dumbness of the questions... But while looking at flow results (or indeed FEA, I spose)... When you change the single view to a side by side or multiple view, etc... How do you control what is displayed in the other "screens"? So how can I show velocities and...

    7.5 CAST issue (motion)

    Hahaha... No, no... Homework is all sorted. This is all fun stuff! (I say fun for the moment... Hair loss and swearing may become a permanant fixture in my life)

    7.5 CAST issue (motion)

    Ah, I see... Usefull to know. Sadly, our Uni doesnt teach much in the way of CAD. We get basic tutorials designed to show us what may be possible... But the rest is just our own progress... So there may be many more idiot questions floating about from me... Apologies in advance ;o)

    7.5 CAST issue (motion)

    Oh, thats brilliant! Thank you very much. Just changed the security on the files and its all lovely. On another note, im not sure if you can help... I seem to have the worlds supply of "bundles" in my licencing... Do they make a difference to anything? I realise they all (seem to) do...

    7.5 CAST issue (motion)

    Hi there, I'm new and my names Chris. I'm currently studying motorcycle design and engineering, including the use of NX. And in order to get more of a clue with NX and for my dissertation (eventually) im using CAST to suppliment my learning. Now.... I seem to have a problem with all of the...
