Liquid-Solid Phase Change Modeling Using Fluent Anirudh and Joseph Lam 2002 Fluent Users’ Group Meeting Solidification Model u FLUENT can be used to solve fluid flow problems involving both solidification and melting for pure materials and alloys u Instead of tracking the liquid-solid front explicitly, an enthalpy- porosity formulation is used u For pure materials, (T and T are equal), a method based solidus liquidus on specific heat is used u The energy equation is written in terms of enthalpy: ¶ r (rH)+ .(ruH) = .(kT) + S ¶t u The liquid fraction, can be defined as: u b = 0 if T £ T solidus u b = 1 if T Tliquidus T - Tsolidus u b = if T T T , T - T solidus liquidus liquidus solidus UGM 2002 Confidential 2 Solidification Model u Other relationships between the liquid fraction and temperature (and species concentrations) are possible, but are not implemented yet u The latent heat content/release can be written in terms of the latent heat and state of melting of the material, L: D H = b L u Instantaneous latent heat content/release can vary between zero (for a solid) and L (for a liquid) u Solution for temperature is essentially an iteration between the energy and the liquid fraction equation UGM 2002 Confidential 3 Treatment of Mushy Zone in Alloys u In Mushy zone, liquid fraction lies bet
