Different moment between Fluent and CFD post

Hi,
I am running simulations on a rushton turbine at Re=200. In this regime, the Power number should be Po~3.5. Po is calculated from the torque obtained in the simulation. However, when I calculate the torque (moment) on the impeller in fluent, the value is off, resulting in Po~6. When I calculate torque on the impeller in CFD post, I do in fact get the right value, resulting in Po~3.5. Does anyone know what can cause this difference, because I would expect both outcomes to be the same. Any comment would be appreciated. Thanks |

Hi Falldox
I experienced the same problem, getting values in CFD Post of something about 60% of the values in Fluent. After some look I noticed that in Fluent I was evaluating the variable Moment Coefficient and not the variable Moment. After this correction I got similar values. This could be your case. |
