Numerical fluid simulation based on the voxel-mesh method was applied to the whole structure of 3.5-inch hard-disk drives. The voxel mesh of a hard-disk drive (HDD) including all components can be generated automatically from a computer-aided desi...
A controlled diffusion airfoil (CDA) for application to a variable-pitch axial-flow fan has been developed. The points of maximum camber height and maximum thickness in the CDA are located at 45% and 35% of the chord length, respectively. The perf...
For the purpose to design Vortex generator（VG) for a wind turbine blade by numerical simulation, the prediction accuracy of the fluid analysis soft, OpenFOAM which is open source software was examined. The subject is the airfoil widely used in win...
