Can someone provide some links or references about using CFX for modelling of UV disinfection process?

Does the radiation model in CFX work for UV system? or it is just for combustion?

Thanks!

Regards!

Barry

Hi,

There's a reference to a paper about UV disinfectation (N.G. Wright, D.M. Hargreaves, "The Use of CFD in the Evaluation of UV Treatment Systems", Accepted for publication in the Journal of Hydroinformatics, 2000) in the CFX-Community web site: http://www-waterloo.ansys.com/commun...2-3B382DEF35DA

Thank you very much, Rui.

Unfortunately, I not not able to access to that journal. Can someone please send me a copy via my email? It would be very appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

It is available here: http://www.iwaponline.com/jh/003/0059/0030059.pdf

There's another paper about UV with simulations done in CFX-5: http://www.efm.leeds.ac.uk/CIVE/aero...ienna_2003.pdf

Thanks a lot, Rui.

However I am not able to access to: http://www.iwaponline.com/jh/003/0059/0030059.pdf

Password is needed. Obviously this journal is not in my university's ejounal list.

Best regards!

Hi Barry,

By the way, in the CFX-Community forum ( http://www-waterloo.ansys.com/commun...um/default.asp ) if you search for UV you might also find some usefull information.

Hi, Rui, Thanks for all the information.

Best regards!
