Hi,
I was wondering whether anyone can help, I been researching on modelling fuel droplets and trying to integrate this into CFD however i am having some difficulty. I have been told to model a single droplet not the fuel spray itself. would i be using a multi-phase or discrete phase model? The fluid is a ethanol-diesel mixture which will undergo micro-explosion. I am fairly new at using CFD, and would appreciate any advice from anyone that has done something similar. Many Thanks, |

Hi, Kay,
If you focus on micro process of single droplet and want to reproduce the process by computer, I believe FLUENT is not appliable. If you want to simulate the combustion of the spray, use DPM. |
