By Computational Fluid Dynamics (shortened as CFD) method, the high relative speed motion model between the blade and air flow is established, the flow field through the blade tip section are simulated, and the instantaneous movement of air flow around the blade can be known.
Yu studied a single-deck mower, and designed the cutter suspension system, analyzed the cutter movement by Matlab software simulation [8].
The cutter deck and the blade are firstly designed, and then stimulated by Computational Fluid Dynamics (shortened as CFD) software called Fluent.
The same can be seen in the simulation, the vortex phenomenon occur close to the blade wall, and there is sudden drop trend for air flow rate, the grass clippings will pile up on the surface of the blade.
Modern computer simulation technology provides an opportunity for the study on commercial lawn mowing vehicle, at least they can provide reliable advice and methods for the production design and manufacturing.

A three-dimensional model of a full-sized diesel SNCR system generated by CFD software FIRE is used to investigate the reduction efficiency under different temperatures.
Therefore this numerical simulation with CFD software (FIRE 2009) is introduced to investigate the performance of SNCR system.
And the simulation injection point agrees with position A.
The simulation results are slightly lower than the experimental results, because simulation lacks a reaction process before mixture flows across the sncr-inlet cross section.
The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental results, and simulation method can be used to further optimize SNCR system.

Thus, Static Simulation software is essential in the industry [8].
Static Simulation Structural integrity was evaluated through static simulations using SolidWorks Simulation software.
However, quantitative thermal performance analysis and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are recommended to validate the effectiveness of ventilation holes and overall thermal management strategies explicitly.
Placement of ventilation holes, as currently designed, will be validated using CFD tools to ensure proper heat dissipation, particularly in wall-mounted scenarios.
While simulation results support structural robustness and theoretical thermal management capabilities, additional quantitative thermal analyses, CFD validations, practical mounting details, and clear references to industry standards compliance are necessary for comprehensive validation and industry readiness.
