I have no idea where to start and wondering if some kind soul could point me in some sort of direction.
I would like to model the vaporization/concentration of a liquid spilled in a hallway that has a known air exchange rate. (Example: spill 8 ounces of alcohol in a 10x10x100 foot hallway with a ventilation system recirculating air at 1200CFM). I would like know the different vapor concentrations while modifying the volumes and air exchange rates. I have looked into using OpenFOAM, but the software seems daunting (at this time I have not even figured which solver would be best). I am looking into tutorials that would help, but have not found one that remotely describes my situation. Questions: Is OpenFOAM overkill for this type of simulation? Is there something simpler/better for my application? What solver would be best? I don't mind doing the work, I just can't find a starting point. Thanks for any help. Steven |
