How to separate flow in two outputs as 70:30?

Hi. I have a 2d tube. In this tube with diameter D0 i have as inlet a constant velocity U. I call this tube Mother tube.
Then this tube is separated in two smaller tubes (daughter tubes) of different sizes (say D1=D0/2 and D2=D0). Each output is= "Type:Pressure-outlet" with zero Gauge Pressure and the Backflow direction is set to default "Normal to Boundary". How can i have a constant flow ratio 70:30 in the outlets of the daughter tubes, of D2(70) and D1(30)?? I try to do it like that in the first daughter tube: I clicked the "Target Mass Flow Rate" and then in the "Target Mass Flow" box i input the number: 0.3*(A*U*m) where: A= area of mother tube U=Velocity of the fluid in the mother tube M=mass (Density) of the fluid in mother tube. And for the other daughter tube i did:0.7*(A*U*m) Is this the correct way to tell Fluent that i want a flow ration of 70:30 at the two outputs? Thank you |
