modeling flow on rotating disc

jumaah · February 28, 2016, 10:09

Hello everyone, I'm beginner user of Ansys-Fluent, I wonder if there a tutorial about modeling flow on rotating disc or any piece of advice to start modeling. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Best,
Jumaah

It's pretty straight forward. Just mesh the domain and you are good to go.

Specify the wall as rotating.

The default is a stationary reference frame, you can establish a rotating reference if you want the reference frame to rotate with the wall.

Also, please don't send PMs if you've already asked in the Forums and vice versa. It's annoying for multiple people to have to answer the same question multiple times. Also, my profile states not to send me any PMs.
