[Workbench] Simulate flow through filter with micron sized pores

FreeFall79 · September 22, 2015, 13:00

Hi all

I am trying to model flow distributions of a stream after passing through a screen with pores sizes on the order of 0.2 microns. Do I have to capture that with the geometry model itself or can I put some sort of interface pressure drop.

Thanks in advance

Capture 0.2 microns with geometry? No way! Yeah, use pressure drop or porous domain.
