abcdefgh is on a distinguished road
Hello, I hope you can help me. I currently simulate the pressure drop of a Fluid (Air) flowing through am complex geometry in Ansys cfx. Incompressible fluid, turbulence sst, constant mass flow, room Temperature.
Unfortunately, I get far too little pressure loss compared to measurements (50 % less). Why is this the case?
A Mesh influence study I have done.
If there is no failure in my simulation, how can I increase the pressure loss by simulation? Are there any settings?

Thank you in advance.
