In addition to the System Coupling tutorials published here, there are several additional coupling-related tutorials published elsewhere in the Ansys documentation. Available tutorials are described in the table below.
Table 2: Additional System Coupling tutorials
| Tutorial | Description |
|---|---|
|
Heat Transfer in Square Channel Air Flow Tutorial |
System Coupling Participant Library tutorial, available in the release-specific documentation under Multiphysics on the Ansys API Documentation site. Command-line tutorial demonstrating the use of Participant Library APIs to create a simple test solver and use it in a steady analysis within the System Coupling co-simulation infrastructure. Simulates the flow of air through a rectangular cross-sectioned channel, using the test solver and the Ansys Fluent solver as participants. |
|
Oscillating Plate Damping Tutorial |
System Coupling Participant Library tutorial, available in the release-specific documentation under Multiphysics on the Ansys API Documentation site. Command-line tutorial demonstrating the implementation of Participant Library APIs in a transient coupled analysis. The case simulates the damping of an oscillating plate FSI analysis with two-way data transfers between a simple test solver and a Mechanical solver. |
|
Pipe Mapping Tutorial |
System Coupling Participant Library tutorial, available in the release-specific documentation under Multiphysics on the Ansys API Documentation site. Command-line tutorial demonstrating the use of Participant Library API mapping capabilities to transfer data across a non-conformal mesh interface. |
|
Forte tutorial, located in the Forte Tutorials. Command-line Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulation of a T-junction pipe flow and a thermal analysis in the metal pipe. The pipe flow is solved by Forte, while the thermal analysis is solved by Fluent. Coupling of the two solvers is automated and handled by System Coupling. | |
|
Conjugate Heat Transfer Simulation of a Single-Cylinder Internal Combustion Engine |
Forte tutorial, located in the Forte Tutorials. Command-line conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulation in an internal combustion engine application. The in-cylinder flow and combustion processes are simulated by a transient CFD analysis using Forte and is coupled with a steady-state thermal analysis of the engine block using Fluent. In each iteration, transfer of the data for heat transfer rate and wall temperature between the two simulations is handled automatically by System Coupling. |
