Thanks for the input. I found that I set the phase interfacial properties incorrectly and as a result it affected the convergence. It seems to be working now.

I am currently looking into...

Hey Alberto,

I have done the following -

1) decrease the maxdeltaT to 1e-7 (My mistake in the previous thread :rolleyes:)

2) changed the velocities to more realistic figures (1 and 10m/s...

Hey

I have been experimenting with the twoPhaseEulerFoam and been applying it to a 10inch pipe with non uniform B.C to determine its accuracy. The conditions were applied with funkySetFields and...

Thanks for the reply,

Well I actually need to simulate what is occuring at the interface as at high differential phase velocities the shear forces is high resulting in large pressure drop which I...

Hey Alberto

From your experience modelling two phase systems which solver would you have chosen to model two phase flow in pipes. The reason why I ask is that I have used both the interFoam (VOF)...

Thank you for your advice, I have done some of those tutorials but due to the tight time schedules I am on I kinda have to dive into the deep end (its kinda a do or die situation). By saying it...

I do have a couple but depends how easy it will be to implement as I am new to openFOAM. I was considering implementing a piece-wise function which will apply a uniform mean velocity for each phase...

Thats what I was going to attempt first. When it comes to the twoPhaseEuler solver is there a beta phase file similiar to the alpha phase? Or is this automatically derived from the alpha file.

Thats great. Do we need to specify the internal field values for Ua, Ub and alpha or do I need to leave them at 0? We are assuming that the phase mass flow rates state constant but in reality there...

Thank you for your input.

It seems the twoPhaseEuler solver will be the best option. A question I do have is that we are mainly concerned with setting up the phase velocities depending on the...

Post Stratified Two-Phase Flow

Hi,

I am currently attempting to model stratified flow in horizontal pipeline (water/steam) and is new to openFOAM. I would like to implement non-uniform boundary conditions for each phase but is...
