Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI)
A Fluid-Structure Interaction model is needed when:
• there are heavy fluid actions on
•
deforming boundaries
it is not possible to neglect
deformations
phenomena are coupled and it is not
possible to study the problem
separating the structural and fluid
effects
e.g. Hemodynamics FSI problem

Benefits of FSI Simulation
• Investigate if problems are coupled
• Determine global performance difference comparing with
•
•
•
•
the rigid case
Analyze local flow field changes
Analyze structural dynamic behaviour
Structural verification
Investigate if problems are physically stable/unstable and
determine transition conditions

The Proposed Product
• The Product aim is to allow FSI problems simulation entirely
within ANSYS Fluent
• A dedicated FEM solver has been developed by means of
UDF coding as plug in for ANSYS Fluent
• Dedicated Graphical User Interface (GUI) and Text User
Interface have been developed
• The Product has been tested, validated and used to simulate
practical and industrial cases

The CFD point of view
• Very often FSI problems are analysed by a structural point
•
•
•
of view simulating the fluid with too simplified models
The present approach uses the CFD point of view
(ANSYS Fluent users point of view), focusing on how the
interaction with the structure influences the fluid behaviour
The CFD user is now allowed to set structure material
properties and constraints in order to easily simulate its
presence in a very family way
The knowledges of other software packages are not
required

Example of 3D model for shells structure (1)
FSI Interaction between a rectangular curtain and an air flow in a room.
This is an example in which
it is not possible to study the problem separating
structural and fluid effects
because there are heavy fluid actions on the curtain surface
and so it is necessary to consider its deformations

Example of 3D model for shells structure (3)
Case 1:
The curtain has the top edge constrained. It’s moved by the air flow
entering from the window and subjected to its dead load.

Example of 3D model for shells structure (4)
Case 2:
In this case the event of failure of curtain support is investigated.
The curtain is pushed by the air flow entering from the window and
it’s free to fall because the top edge constraint is missing.

Example of hemodynamics problem (1)
The following picture represents the model of a Systemic-to-pulmonary
shunt that is a surgical procedure to treat complex congenital heart
defects.
It consists of an interposing tube between the sub-clavian artery and
the right pulmonary artery. In this case
it’s important to analyze the pressure drop across the shunt
which is affected by the blood pressure combined
with the distensibility of the shunt.
