COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS
DOLFYN – SOFiSTiK
APPLICATIONS
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a standard numerical method for solving any kind of fluid motion and the
transport of heat or particles within the fluid. SOFiSTiK has
gained consulting and project experience during the past
years and is now supporting DOLFYN (www.dolfyn.net),
an open source CFD-Solver used in practice in many engineering fields.
DOLFYN is a Finite Volume software to solve incompressible
fluid dynamic problems in 3D.
Wind loading on bridge cross-sections
Applications in Civil and Structural Engineering
• Wind loading on buildings (bluff bodies)
• Wind loading on moving bodies, especially bridges
• Wind comfort and nuisance to cyclists and pedestrians
• Wind energy
• Heating and Ventilation (HVAC)
• Fire safety engineering
• Wave loadings
Windtunnel or CFD?
A wind tunnel is just a model of the reality, so is any CFD
model. The wind tunnel needs scaling, Reynolds number is
not the same and there are cases where this does matter.
For flexible structures, the measurement equipment may
change the effects considerably. On the other hand there
are known deficiencies of numerical analysis, which do not
allow taking all results for granted. “The purpose of computing is insight, not numbers.” said R. Hamming in 1962.
So the question is not which technique to be used but how
to combine both methods to their best use.
