ANSYS Fluent Shock Tube Simulation

Job ID: 40093632

Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR

Project Title

Analysis of Shock Generation in a Shock Tube Using ANSYS Fluent

Project Description

I am looking for an experienced ANSYS Fluent / CFD expert to simulate shock wave generation and propagation in a shock tube. The objective is to numerically analyse the flow physics and extract meaningful pressure, temperature, and velocity trends during shock formation.

Geometry Details

Driver section length: 5000 mm

Driven section length: 2000 mm

Working gases:

Driver: Nitrogen (N₂)

Driven: Air

Objectives

To simulate shock wave generation in a shock tube using ANSYS Fluent

To analyse pressure, temperature, and velocity variations during shock formation and propagation

To generate pressure vs time plots at two probe locations:

800 mm from the end of the driven section

300 mm from the end of the driven section

Expected Deliverables

Proper ANSYS Fluent setup (geometry, mesh, species model, solver settings)

Contour plots of pressure, temperature, and velocity

Pressure–time plots at the specified locations

Brief explanation of results and shock behaviour

ANSYS case and data files (optional but preferred)

Skills Required

ANSYS Fluent

CFD

Compressible Flow

Shock Waves / Gas Dynamics

Notes

Simulation accuracy and correct physics modelling are critical

Academic-level clarity is expected (this is for a technical project)
