Three-Dimensional Numerical Simulation of an External Gear Pump With Decompression Slot and Meshing Contact Point

TL;DR: The aim of the present work is to contribute to the understanding of the fluid flow inside an EGP by means of a complete three-dimensional (3D) parallel simulation on a cluster.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computational fluid dynamics and particle image velocimetry assisted design tools for a new generation of trochoidal gear pumps

TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional model with deforming mesh computational fluid dynamics is presented, including the effects of the manufacturing tolerance and the leakage inside the pump and a new boundary condition is created for the simulation of the solid contact in the interteeth radial clearance.

Methodology for developing teaching activities and materials for use in fluid mechanics courses in undergraduate engineering programs

Abstract: “Mechanics” and “Fluids” are familiar concepts for any newly-registered engineering student. However, when combined into the term “Fluid Mechanics”, students are thrust into the great unknown. The present article demonstrates the process of adaptation employed by the Fluid Mechanics course in the undergraduate engineering program, along with the teaching methodology, teaching materials and results obtained, evaluating the final objective in terms of student satsfaction and level of learning.
