Looks like I found the problem here,
The Formulation ANSYS offers for the WenYu model in the Theory Guide is not complete. Looks like Fluent is setting C_D = 0.43245 for particle Reynolds numbers > 1000 (Similar like for the Gidaspow model with C_D = 0.44 for Rep > 1000). As far as I know this is not included in the original WenYu Formulation? best regards |
Hi Blerli,
I have your same problem. Have you managed to solve it? Even if I set a constant CD, I still don't get the same results of the Fluent Wen-Yu model. Thanks and best regards |
Hi,
I'm writing this in case someone is dealing with the same problem. We were getting the wrong result because we were missing an alpha_g. The correct formula to get the drag force from the gas-solid exchange coefficient and viceversa is: alpha_g*alpha_g*ro_p*F_D=K_pg*(Ug_Up) (alpha_g*ro_p comes from the assumption that n_p*m_p=alpha_g*ro_p in each cell) So that finally the value that must be returned by the UDF is: drag_force = 18.0 * pow(void_g,-3.65) * (1 + 0.15 * pow(void_g * Re,0.687)) I still get vaguely different results, but at least now they are comparable to the Fluent Wen-Yu model. Best regards, Filippo |
