Schematic Diagram of the Pivot


 We will model our pivot in this lesson (Assembling of a scissors lift), Please refer to the diagram above for correct dimensioning.
Also, here are things to take notes of as you watch this video. Below the screen are tabs of keyboard functions that are frequently used in SolidWorks. Functions like, Ctrl, Alt, Shift, NumLock, CapsLock, ScrollLock and in their middle is the input display box.
The hourglass Mouse pointer with the subscripts of L, R, LL and RR represents Left/Right mouse click button and their Double clicks (RR/LL).
These are made so, to enable a better understanding of operations performed in the process of  our modelling.
Sorry we can’t provide you with a commentary, so enjoy the music. we hope it wets your taste for moreSmile with tongue out.

 I do hope you find this series interesting.

Understanding Rotating Regions in SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation

By

By GSC SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation offers some great tools for analyzing rotating region problems. There are a lot of capabilities within the tool but, often times, there isn’t a lot of information about these capabilities. This article is meant to be a comprehensive guide to everything related to rotating region problems within SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation. This will include explaining the different types of rotating region problems as well as the best practices associated with each one of them. There are two main types of rotating regions in Flow Simulation; global and local rotating regions. Both of these types are available for all fluid types; Newtonian and Non-Newtonians fluids. Global Rotating Region The global rotating region assumes you have a model that is completely symmetric about the rotating axis and all the components within the computational domain are rotating at the speed of the rotating reference frame. Due to the fact this type...
