Designing and analyzing rotary aerodynamic systems such as propellers, fans, and rotors can be computationally expensive and time-consuming when modeled in full geometric detail. Engineers often face challenges balancing simulation accuracy with computational efficiency. This session will explore how Ansys Fluent’s Virtual Blade Model (VBM) provides an efficient alternative for simulating rotary aerodynamics without explicitly modeling blade geometry. By representing the aerodynamic influence of rotating blades through source terms, VBM enables faster simulations while maintaining reliable aerodynamic insights.
Join this webinar to learn a practical workflow for setting up and solving external aerodynamics rotary problems using VBM, helping engineers accelerate analysis and optimize design performance.
