I intend to use the Fluent solver to simulate the flow and determine the residence time distribution. My questions are: 1) what technique can I use do represent the dynamic motion of the twin screws? 2) which model will be more reliable for the mixing simulation? 3)which is the best way to treat the boundary condition at the inlet?
