Pipe Pressure Loss -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

May 15, 2009, 04:21	Pipe Pressure Loss	#1
PoliPro New Member Antonio Caimano Join Date: Mar 2009 Posts: 4 Rep Power: 17	Hi, I simulated a simple incompressible air flow through a small pipe (diameter = 1 mm) with StarCCM+ in order to verify the pressure losses along it. The values of pressure loss I obtained are quite higher (60%) than the analytical ones. The mesh is good and the turbulence model I used is the k-epsilon. Any suggestions?
