Axial fan simulation
 
Hi,
I have to model an axial fan in fluent.I have created the fan and the fluid domain .I am using SRF model in fluent.I want to know the boundary conditions to simulate the flow.:confused:

Can anyone plz help.

Regards
Shaheen

Hey
You can use "pre. Inlet" or "mass flow inlet" for inlet and "pre. Outlet" and "pre far field" for outlet
For rotary wall default setups are ok and for stationary wall use zero angular velocity relative to absolute coordinate!

Thanks for the reply.Can you plz suggest which turbulance model to use.:)

hi
 
you can use K-epsilon turbulence model realizable or standard It depends upon your required results.
