Modeling Membrane Separation in Water Treatment with Ansys Fluent

You can potentially model the membrane in your water treatment scheme using the porous media option available in Ansys Fluent, but with some limitations. Here's a breakdown:

Porous Media Approach:

• This approach treats the membrane as a resistance to flow based on its physical properties like porosity and permeability.
• You can define the membrane properties in the "Material" section of Fluent and assign them to a cell zone representing the membrane.
• Fluent will then calculate the flow of water through the membrane based on pressure and temperature differences across it.

Ansys Fluent: Modeling Thin Ducts in Large Air Conditioner Domain

 Entering a small thickness like 1.5 mm into a large domain in ANSYS Fluent can be challenging due to meshing limitations and potential contact issues. Here are some approaches to consider:

Ansys Fluent: Modifying DPM Sample Output Number Format

 Unfortunately, ANSYS Fluent doesn't offer a direct way to modify the number format for DPM (Discrete Phase Model) sample output. The output format is typically fixed in scientific notation (e.g., 1.1e+00).

Here are some alternative approaches you can consider:
