Velocity isosurface By default, the isosurface is colored by velocity magnitude In the ‘Colour’ tab select ‘Mode’ to be ‘Variable’, ‘Variable’ to be ‘Temperature’,‘Range’ to be ‘Local’, and press ‘Apply’ This is the end of the tutorial. To be able to revisit this problem, quit CFD-Post and save changes to the project in Workbench. Further work There are many ways the simulation in this tutorial could be extended Better inlet profiles current boundary conditions (velocity inlets) assume uniform profiles specify profiles (of velocity, turbulence, etc), or extend the geometry so that inlets and outlets are further from junction Mesh independence check that results do not depend on mesh re-run simulations with finer mesh(es) generated in Meshing application, or from adaptive meshing in FLUENT Temperature-dependent physical properties density differences could lead to buoyant forces (with gravity turned on) quite small effects in this case viscosity, etc Actually, the current mesh is probably not fine enough – one indication of this is that low-order discretization gives different answers. Note that, by default, there is no gravity in the model – this is a setting in the General task page. * WS1-* ANSYS, Inc. Proprietary ? 2009 ANSYS, Inc. All rights reserved.

Introductory tutorial for FLUENT starting from existing mesh (generated in earlier tutorial) model set-up, solution and post-processing Mixing of cold and hot water in a T-piece how well do the fluids mix? what are the pressure drops? It’s a good idea to identify the key simulation outcomes from the start. You can use these to monitor progress of solution. Start in Workbench If starting from a ready-made mesh file (*.meshdat), start Workbench an
