Description
Description
The problem simulates two-phase flow as soluble particles in a given fluid in a channel with a convergent-divergent structure by ANSYS Fluent software.
The current model is designed in three dimensions using Design Modeler software. The model consists of a channel with a rectangular cross-section with dimensions of 0.001 m * 0.0002 m, which in its longitudinal direction, the geometric structure of the model becomes convergent-divergent.
The meshing of the present model has been done using ANSYS Meshing software. The mesh type is structured, and the element number is equal to 175,500.
Eulerian Methodology
The Eulerian multiphase model has been used to simulate the present model. The Eulerian multiphase model is considered the most complex model for defining multiphase flows.
This model solves a set of momentum and conservation equations for each phase separately, While the multiphase mixture and VOF methods only solve the equations for phases other than the initial phase.
We apply the Eulerian model in applications such as bubble columns, droplet flows, particle-laden flows with a volume fraction greater than ten percent, pneumatic transitions for granular liquid flows, fluidized beds for solid-gas slurry flows, particle suspension and sedimentation phenomena as solid-liquid flows.
In this simulation, the base fluid is defined as a liquid with a density of 1050 kg/m3 and a viscosity of 0.000024997 kg/m.s, and the secondary fluid in the form of particles with a density of 1050 kg/m3 and a viscosity of 1. kg/m.s is defined.
The type of particle dispersion in the base liquid is defined in granular form, and the particle diameter is defined as 0.00002 m. The base fluid and its soluble particles enter this channel at a rate of 0.007142 m/s.
Eulerian Conclusion
At the end of the solution process, two-dimensional and three-dimensional contours related to the mixing pressure, base fluid velocity, soluble particle velocity, and volume fraction of soluble particles are obtained.
As it is obvious, the maximum velocity occurs in the throat zone since the cross-section is minimum in this section.
Filomena Bernhard DDS –
The explanation is really clear, especially regarding the Eulerian multiphase model. But how exactly did you account for the particle-fluid interaction in the simulation?
MR CFD Support –
In the simulation using the Eulerian multiphase model, the interaction between the particle phase and the fluid phase is accounted for through interphase momentum exchange coefficients. These include drag force, lift force, virtual mass force, and other relevant forces. The computational model solves separate momentum conservation equations for each phase while also considering these exchange coefficients to account for the interactions.

Araceli Bernier –
The use of the Eulerian model clearly indicates highly detailed simulations. I am curious, how were particle collisions managed in the flow, considering the concentrated particle regime in certain sections of the channel?
MR CFD Support –
In the Eulerian two-phase flow simulation, particle collisions are managed through the kinetic theory of granular flow which accounts for particle-particle interactions. The simulations use parameters such as granular temperature, collisional viscosity, and pressure to model these interactions and track the dispersed phase’s behavior within the convergent-divergent channel. Depending on model setup, appropriate drag functions and restitution coefficients are also configured to simulate particle-particle and particle-wall collisions realistically.
Rory Jaskolski II –
The description of the Eulerian model approach is thorough. I am especially interested in understanding how granular particle dispersion was handled in the simulation. Can you explain this in more detail?
MR CFD Support –
In this Eulerian model simulation, granular particle dispersion is handled by defining secondary fluid particles with specified density, viscosity, and diameter. This allows the software to track the discrete solid-like particles within the flow by solving momentum and conservation equations for this phase separately. The computational methods tackle the interactions between particles and fluid, as well as the particle collision and transport dynamics within the convergent-divergent channel.
Gina Tremblay –
This CFD project seems complex. Could you please explain if the subsurface rock layers were incorporated into the model?
MR CFD Support –
As this model simulates two-phase flow within a convergent-divergent channel and the substances involved are a liquid and particles, there’s no direct incorporation of subsurface rock layers in the simulation. The focus is on the flow dynamics and particle interactions within the specified channel structure.

Dr. Camden Wintheiser DVM –
This comprehensive outline really helped me understand the physics behind two-phase flow. However, I’d like to know how the convergence of the soluble particles was accounted for in the simulation. Could you elaborate on that aspect?
MR CFD Support –
In the simulation, convergence of the soluble particles within the fluid was ensured through adequate discretization and iteration methods. Since the Eulerian model solves a separate set of momentum and conservation equations for each phase, this allowed for closer monitoring and adjustments within the iteration process to ensure the convergence of the particle phase with the liquid phase, maintaining accuracy in representing the particle suspension and interaction with the fluid.
