Drying process (evaporation in porous)

Rosilda Sousa Santos · February 19, 2018, 12:32

Hello, good afternoon

I'm trying to get a case whose geometry is an eight-hole brick, which I'm considering as a porous medium, I'm thinking of a multiphase and multicomponent model inside the brick and having this multicomponent model in which it takes into account the evaporation process inside it. I already read several tutorials on ansys but I can not seize the case and see this evaporation on the brick walls could anyone help me? with suggestions.

thanks

You are proposing a multiphase, multicomponent simulation in a porous region with phase change. This sounds like a seriously difficult CFD task. To even attempt a simulation like this I trust you have many years CFD experience.

Are you sure you need to do a simulation of this difficulty? What are you trying to learn with this simulation anyway?
