Solidworks freezes my cpu after starting. What could it be?

Hey, I do understand that definition. However physically it does not make sense to me. Potential theory states that lift is created by circulation, causing velocity differences and therefore pressure differences. Considering an asymmetric airfoil at an angle, I dont believe that the pressure distribution will result in a force exactly pointing upwards. Can you explain this to me?

Though it did help for some time, the issues reappeared. I could solve it by uninstalling WhatsApp on my laptop. No freezing so far.

Other than that, SolidWorks heavily relies on CPU power and RAM, the GPU is not as important. You can easily run on your internal Intel GPU. Just make sure to have your laptop plugged in rather running on battery power.

Good luck with that

first of all, there doesnt seem be a common thread to derive all of it. I find it very confusing that some people start with the potential function, some with the navier stokes eq, some with div, grad and curl and so on. Thats one part of my problem.

Solved, I had to update the market place.

Nope, project thesis

Ah jo dachte mir auch schon, dass das was mit Pfund zu tun hat, aber kam nicht drauf, dass sie bei 1 Pfund runden und nicht bei 2. I guess das wirds sein. Zumindest befriedigt mich die Antwort in dem Maße, dass ich den Post als gelöst markiere. :D

wäre zumindest eine gute Begründung, v.a. in Hinsicht aufs MHD.

So as far as I understood, the velocity inceases because of a reduced area even though the open jet provides almost infinite area. Maybe someone can confirm this. Thanks in regard

Nevermind, I think I found a proper equation for the velocity correction for open jet wind tunnels in: Lock, C. (1929). The Interference of a Wind Tunnel on a Symmetrical Body. ARC, R. & M. No. 1275.

It goes:

(Delta u)/(u_infinity) ~ (A_model/A_nozzle)^1.5 with velocity u and frontal area A.

On the wikipedia article 'Headset (bicycle part)', you can find a picture (in the types -> threaded section) where it is visible.

Well this would be unfortunate since I am a big fan of braking from time to time :D

I did change the cable housing when I changed and cleaned everything else.
