Good Evening All,
I am trying some simulations our in Icepak, and simulating a fan from the library. The software gives you the option to apply swirl to the fan, either by RPM or magnitude. But when I plot a particle trace from the results of the fan, it shows no swirl, more a straight flow coming out the fan. I would have thought the swirl of the air flow would be important in an electronics analysis as it creates a more turbulent environment, but the flow is straight? Any guidance would be appreciated Thanks Rusty |
