Outlet BC for multiPhase modeling | Back flow problem
1 Attachment(s)
Hello Foamers,
When I run a multiphase case (air and water), the slow through the domain is satisfactory but when it reaches the outlet there is a problem. The flow starts to comes back and becomes erratic. I want the flow to move out without any back flow. I am trying to run a RAS k-epsilon model. I really hope I can get some help here. Thank you. Regards, Saugat blockMesh Code:
convertToMeters 1; Code:
internalField uniform 0;//initially air in the entire domain - we will change that with setFields! Code:
internalField uniform (0 0 0);//Initially the velocity is (0 0 0) m/s Code:
internalField uniform 0;//initially atmospheric pressure in the entire domain Code:
internalField uniform 0; Code:
internalField uniform 0.0001; Code:
boundaryField |
For alpha.water, outlet:
Code:

Thank You al.csc for the response.
I ran the simulations with boundary conditions you suggested. However, there is still backflow in the outlet. How can we make it work? |
Can you try for p_rgh:
Code:
outlet |
Thank You again for your response. I tried that, still getting backflow.
|
Then let's start from the beginning: which solver and OF version are you using?
|
Im using OpenFoam version 4.0 and using interFoam (PimpleFoam) for multiphase simulation.
|
Have you checked phi/U at the outlet patch? You can do it in paraview after
Code:
foamToVTK -surfaceFields But my suggestion is to switch to a newer OF version. Quote:
