Description
Sea Robot Motion Immersed in the Water, Dynamic Mesh, ANSYS Fluent Tutorial
In this project, the moving of a Sea Robot Motion Immersed in Water by the dynamic mesh method is simulated by ANSYS Fluent software. We perform this CFD project and investigate it by CFD analysis.
The present model is designed in two dimensions using Design Modeler software.
The meshing of the model has been done using ANSYS Meshing software. Moreover, the element number is 30010.
Also, the transient solver has been enabled due to the dynamic mesh option.
Robot Methodology
In problems where the location and shape of computational cells change, it is mandatory to use the dynamic mesh model to prevent the extreme deterioration of elements’ quality.
Smoothing and remeshing methods create higher-quality elements when the previous ones may cause errors and are no longer useful to perform calculations with. Remeshing occurs every 50 iterations to generate a new high-quality mesh.
The robot (cube) is first placed on the left side of the domain and moves toward the inlet boundary using an imposed velocity profile (velocity in the X-direction equal to 3 m/s for 0 to 3 seconds).
The standard k-epsilon model was used to solve the turbulent fluid equations. Also, the water enters the rectangular computational domain with a velocity of 1.5 m/s.
Robot Conclusion
At the end of the solution process, two-dimensional contours related to the velocity, pressure, turbulent viscosity, and streamlines inside the computational domain are obtained.
The contours related to pressure clearly show how the robot’s motion against the water flow direction causes the pressure at the stagnation point to increase.
Furthermore, by viewing the contours related to velocity and streamlines, one can easily understand that the opposite motion of the robot concerning the water flow direction will give rise to the wake region occurring behind the robot.

I’m thrilled with how this project visually explains how pressure changes occur when the sea robot moves against the water flow. The dynamic mesh approach seems key for accurately capturing the interaction between the robot and the water. Can you share more on how the dynamic mesh helped us analyze the wake region and the quality of elements after remeshing?
MR CFD Support –
Thank you for your positive feedback about the sea robot motion simulation! The dynamic mesh technique allows the mesh to update and adapt to changes in geometry or position that result from the robot’s motion in the water. To study the wake region effectively, it is essential that the mesh in that region maintains high quality and resolution. Therefore, by using smoothing and remeshing methods during the simulation, the solver generates higher-quality elements adapted to the new conditions every 50 iterations. This ensures that the mesh can accurately capture rapidly changing flow features behind the robot, like the formation of vortices in the wake region, without succumbing to errors due to deteriorating element quality.

Chadrick Walsh –
After following this tutorial, my Sea Robot’s motion simulation is looking quite different from the expected outcome. Is there any chance that different versions of ANSYS Fluent impact these results significantly, assuming that all steps were correctly followed?
MR CFD Support –
It’s possible that different versions of ANSYS Fluent may introduce slight variations due to updates in solver algorithms or methodologies. However, if you’ve accurately followed all the steps, the results should be fairly consistent. Please ensure that the mesh quality is sufficient, all boundary conditions are correctly set, and the transient solver settings align with the tutorial guidance for the best possible accuracy.
Ms. Cecilia Schowalter –
The simulation of the sea robot moving through water sounds complex. Could you explain how the dynamic mesh method benefits this particular study?
MR CFD Support –
Certainly, the dynamic mesh method is essential for simulating problems where the geometry may move or deform during the simulation. In the case of the sea robot, as it moves through the water, the mesh around it needs to adjust dynamically to accommodate the changing geometrical position. Using the dynamic mesh allows for the continuous recalculations necessary for a CFD analysis to maintain accurate results without the mesh quality deteriorating. It’s especially beneficial for capturing fluid-structure interactions and for ensuring that the transient behaviors are correctly modeled.
George Toy PhD –
The dynamic mesh aspect has me curious—how does the software ensure mesh quality while the robot is in motion, and how does that impact computational resources?
MR CFD Support –
The software ensures mesh quality through the usage of dynamic mesh techniques like smoothing and remeshing. These ensure high-quality elements where remeshing especially offers new high-quality mesh generation when elements degrade due to motion. Smoothing adjusts mesh node positions to improve quality, while remeshing modifies the topology. To maintain computational efficiency, remeshing is set to occur periodically, every 50 iterations in this case, which balances computational resource demands with mesh quality.

This sea robot simulation is exceptionally detailed and provides great insight into the behavior of the robot when immersed in water. The use of dynamic mesh to simulate its motion is ingenious, perfectly addressing the challenges of moving bodies in a fluid environment. The iterations for remeshing to ensure accuracy are impressive, as are the use of the k-epsilon turbulence model and the clear contour presentations which situate us within the computational domain effectively. Really admirable work on visualizing the pressure changes and disturbed water flow due to the robot’s motion. It eloquently illustrates not just the science but the underlying fluid dynamics artfully.
