Basic research on cerebral aneurysms using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations has recently progressed. We describe a clinical case with the use of CFD simulations. A 76-year-old woman had an unruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm associated with pseudo-occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA). Pre-operative CFD simulations demonstrated that carotid artery stenting (...

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code has been combined with a genetic algorithm (GA) to perform a two-dimensional drag minimization on the base region of tractor trailers. Few studies have been conducted with CFD driven by a GA due to extensive run times and the general non autonomous characteristics of meshing a suitable CFD geometry. This study solves the two-dimensional Reynolds-average...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been widely used in pressure drop/hydraulic loss calculations in many industries, including the aerospace and turbo-machinery industry as well as in the nuclear power industry. During the past 30 years, a significant amount of time and effort have been spent in benchmarking the CFD tools and models against test data in aerospace and turbo-machinery industr...

Wind catchers are traditional natural ventilation systems attached to buildings in order to ventilate the indoor air. The most common type of wind catcher is four sided one which is capable to catch wind in all directions. CFD simulation is the perfect way to evaluate the wind catcher performance. The accuracy of CFD results is the issue of concern, so sensitivity analyses is crucial to find ou...

This paper presents the results of the application of CFD to ventilation calculations at Yucca Mountainusing MULTIFLUX. Seven cases were selected to study the effect of the heat transport coefficient onthe drift wall temperature distribution. It was concluded that variable heat transport coefficients suchas those given by the differential–parameter CFD used in MULTIFLUX are consider...
