multiphase

santu · October 29, 2013, 03:57

i want to try a problem which have one pipe which is connected with two other pipes. in the main pipe nitrogen and argon liquid is flowing and in the branch pipes nitrogen gas is flowing. I want to the simulation for heat and mass transfer analysis as well as the track the nitrogen bubbles.

so please suggest me which model i try in CFX for the above type problem

Is multiphase and multi-component model coupling possible in CFX?
then how?

This sounds like a multi-phase and multi-component simulation as you suggest. Yes, this is possible in CFX. The CFX tutorials cover the basics of multiphase and multicomponent simulations so that is the place to start.

what are the major draw back of CFX compare to fluent for the multi phase and multi-component problems.

which have better converging criteria

Try them both and work it out for yourself. They both have advantages and disadvantages.
