FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) are both computer simulations used to analyze the behavior of a system. FEA is used to analyze the behavior of solid objects and structures, while CFD is used to study the behavior of fluids. FEA works by breaking a structure down into small elements and then simulating how the structure would react to external forces and loads. CFD uses mathematics and algorithms to simulate the flow of fluids in a system, such as air or water.
Introduce computational fluid dynamics analysis (CFD) which has been widely used analyzing aerodynamic, fluid flow, heat transfer, and etc.
Introduce FEA method and explain how a FEA is used for part stress analysis. Use example to show how to analyze part stress.
