Mixed convection problem

January 25, 2006, 08:59

Hi, I'm trying to model a mixed convection in a circular pipe (I'm working with FLUENT). It's a short circular duct, my Reynold number are about 3000 ( the critical value is 2300) and the flow results not fully developed. What kind of model I've to start? I'm inclined to prefer a k-epsilon model but I don't know how to set the turbulence specification method. Can anybody help me in this? Thanks a lot. Regards

hi dear
i have a project aboute mixed convection.i want to model this phenomena with fluent.if you have this file ,please send to me.its not important which is advance or amatured.thanks a lot
