I'm modeling a blowdown from a high pressure vessel (7 MPa) to ambient conditions, that go through a nozzle at choked conditions. Does anyone know of a way to model the density accurately, accounting for compressibility? Do you have a UDF? Thanks in advance.

There's a Redlich-Kwong Equation of State based UDF available from Fluent UDF archive, which can be used to model real gases. This may help you...

The UDF is available from the UDF archive at fluentusers.com, and it is a Redlich-Kwong Real Gas UDF, the Soave modified version. However, for H2/O2 combustion I doubt that you will need a real gas model. Have you tried to calculate some compressability factors in order to determine the deviation from an ideal gas at you relevant conditions?

Dear Skov,

these are my operating conditions

GH2 P=70 bars , T = 287 K GO2 P=70 bars , T = 100 K

A+

What are the respective mole/mass fractions or flow rates -the ratio between H2 and O2.

By the way a real gas model should be available with the coupled solver, thus you do not need to go into UDF modeling of the real gas state...
