Hi all.
I´m trying to simulate de deformation and resultant flow of air during an ambu bag operation. So far i´ve achieved the mechanical deformation of the bag in ansys mechanical. Is there a way to translate the deformation of the bag from mechanical to fluent to simulate the air flow? I´ve attached three pictures, two of the deformation simulation, and one that i found that simulates the air flow using other software.
Thanks in advance.

You can use FSI within Ansys WB wherein Mechanical can transfer transformed shaped to Fluent or CFX and Fluent or CFX can simulate the flow.

Hi, can you please share more information about this simulation?
I am very interested in your findings.

Sorry, i was not able to carry out the simulation due to budget cuts. Hope you can do it.


Best regards.
