Abstract

CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) requires strong expertise and extensive training to obtain accurate results. To improve the usability in the complex product development process, two new types of engineering features, fluid physics feature and dynamic physics feature, which convey the simulation intent, are proposed in this paper to achieve CFD solver setup automation and robust simulation model generation in an ideal CAD/CAE integration system. Further, the association between simulation intent and design intent is integrated with another newly defined fluid functional feature in order to achieve the consistency. Consequently, an optimal design could be achieved by considering production operation, manufacturability and cost analysis concurrently. A case study of steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) outflow control device (OCD) is presented to show the prospective benefits of the method.
