Hi, i am modeling a flow where an axial fan(internal) suck the air from open ended channels(fins) at Icepak. Volumetric flowrate data i found from the analysis are less than the experimental ones(which i am sure that experimental data are correct). I tryied zero equation, enhanced two eq. and enhanced RNG. Mesh along the channels and fan are good enough. I meshed using y+ = 5. Even in enhanced two eq. and enhanced RNG flow values are a way less than the actual one. pressure discretization scheme is second order, others are first and i also updated the fan cure wrt. altitude. And energy equation is not solved since, i think it is not necessary. Is there anything that I can do as an improvement
