Torque Calculation in CFD
 

Hi,
Can anyone help me out!! Done CFD simulation on pump .. got pressure difference and calculated head, But now I need Torque for efficiency calculation. How to obtain Torque at different mass flow rate in CFD?
Thanks

Which code are you working on? It seems to be a trivial application.. haven't you had any luck with tutorials or searching a bit on the forum??

Hi,
I have used CFX. I couldn't find any information relevant for my condition. I have got pressure difference for Head calculation but now searching for CFD output for Torque on impeller.

I do not have access to a CFX license anymore but if I remember well, you can load the results to CFD-Post (if you have a license for CFX, you should automatically have also CFD-Post). There you can go to Calculators -> Function Calculator and choose torque and a specific location where you want to calculate torque.

Thank You Very much...
And SAME PROBLEM IN FLUENT.. then?
Once again thank you for your prompt reply..

Fluent has the capability to report the torque directly in the solver in Reports -> Forces -> Moments. You can do the same in CFD-Post as well, of course.

Thanks a lot!! Finally got Torque.
Thank You everyone.
