For my fluids class, I have a final project in which I have to explore &#8220;Fluid Machines to help reduce energy consumption&#8221;. One of the options is Fluidic Air Lubrication (FAL).\u00a0nI have a little bit of background in CFD, as I\u2019m the Aero lead for our uni\u2019s solar car team. I\u2019ve ran CFD on ANSYS Fluent for our CAD models multiple times, and I understand the general math behind it pretty decent.nFor this project I was thinking to do a 2D simulation with a ship hull, one with FAL and one without. I could then measure the coefficient of drag in both. My question is, how would I go about actually implementing this &#8220;air bubble&#8221; under the ship hull in ANSYS? All the previous CFD work ive done has never involved any lubricants, so I\u2019m a little bit lost.\u00a0nnAny help would be great! Thanks n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-50198","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-2d","topic-tag-ansys-fluent","topic-tag-fluent"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["22441"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":["&\u0000\u0017\u0000H?W0A?O1?6#"],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["307"],"_bbp_subscription":["256753"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["50198"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","22555","182608"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["2"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["134507"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["134507"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2020-11-30 12:17:20"]},"test":"hadisc2"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/50198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/50198\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
