I'm just going to go with intuitive logic here, but you'd expect that with centrifugal force you will be getting faster movement around the outside rather than the inside.
You can run a sim like that for -any- .IGES design? Shit I need to bust out solidworks. That analysis is done in 3d right? So what happens, you produce cross-sections at different depths? What software is it that you use again? And does it take alot of training to use it? Or is it fairly intuitive? Because I might be able to gain access to it...
Furthermore, can you do something more than just the fluid flow patterns? can you factor in thermal characterstics as well? Or even just do thermal characteristics ignoring fluid flow?
