Molar Mass Impact in Multicomponent CFX Simulations (Without Reactions)

 In multicomponent flow simulations without reactions, the exact value of the molar mass for each component doesn't significantly affect the mass fraction results in ANSYS CFX. Here's why:

ANSYS Fluent: Plotting Pressure Change and Determining Pressure Drop in Pipes

 Here's how to address your questions about plotting pressure change and determining pressure drop in ANSYS Fluent:

Plotting Pressure Change:

 * Surface Reports: Utilize Surface Reports in ANSYS Fluent to obtain average pressure values at the inlet and outlet faces.

ANSYS SLM Simulation: Troubleshooting Iso-Surface Movement

Iso-surface movement during SLM simulation in ANSYS can be caused by several factors. Here are some potential causes and solutions to consider:

👽

 * Inaccurate Melt Pool Dynamics: The melting behavior of the powder might be misrepresented in your simulation. Calibrate your material properties, laser power settings, and melt pool viscosity to better reflect reality.

 * Meshing Issues: A coarse mesh might not capture the melt pool dynamics accurately. Refine your mesh, particularly around the laser-powder interaction zone, to improve precision.

Water Velocity Increase in Partially Filled Stirred Vessel Simulation (OpenFOAM)

 The unexpected velocity increase in your partially filled stirred vessel simulation could stem from a few factors:

Hey everyone,

I have a weird problem with my simulation of a stirred vessel partially filled with water. Above the air-water interface, the velocity of water (UWater) gradually increases over time and I can't figure out why. I think this increase over time causes my simulation to fail after simulating a few seconds

I mostly used the case from this link as a reference: https://www.cemf.ir/simulating-two-p...sing-openfoam/

I can't figure out what the problem is for the increase. Does anyone know what could be the cause for this or had similar issues in the past?

Porting Initial Field from StarCCM+ to OpenFOAM for Continuing Simulations

 There are two main approaches to porting the initial field from a StarCCM+ simulation to an OpenFOAM case:

 * Using ccmToFoam: While ccmToFoam can convert the mesh, it may not directly translate the initial field data. You'll need to manipulate the converted data to match OpenFOAM's format.

Simulating Rough Wall Pipe Flow in OpenFOAM with interFoam

 In OpenFOAM, you can simulate rough wall effects in your pipe flow simulations using the roughWall function object. This function alters the logarithmic law of the wall to account for the increased drag caused by the roughness.
