Computational Model Definition
• Steady state flow conditions (i.e. not changing with time)
• Three-dimensional model
• Linear elastic structural analysis
• Turbulent flow (SST k/omega model)
• Fluid: air, ideal gas
• Air inflow/outflow conditions:
– Velocity = Mach 2.5, sea level, AoA 20o
– Temperature = 70 °F

External Data Method
New at R13 is the ability to import loads from ANSYS tools, third party software, or even user defined loading. The loading needs to be in a delimited format, i.e. Excel .csv file. The data is entered using an External Data component system from the project schematic and then linked to the appropriate analysis. In the below example, pressures loads were extracted from FLLUENT and mapped to the Mechanical model. The next slide illustrates the external data setup.
