CFD analysis of Centrifugal compressor

murthy pnvr · November 7, 2010, 11:25

Hi everybody..
i have CAD geometry of Centrifugal compressor & volute, please advice me how to do CFD analysis through CFX 11.0 tool.My doubts are ...
1. Where to mesh compressor with diffuser & volute?
2. Is it possible to simulate the Rotation of impeller in simulation?

Please send your suggestions to my Mail id

Do first the corresponding tutorial for centrifugal compressor. First use tetrahedral mesh with ICEM CFD, it is easily controllable. The rotation can be simulated with Transient Rotor-Stator with transient physics, it is in the documentation.
