[GAMBIT] help( solid and liquid mixing)

sanaz · October 14, 2009, 02:38

Hi, I am simulating the liquid-solid flow using FLUENTin in stirred tanks using impeller. My problem is that when I go to the multiphase model, it does not read the solid material and how to build geometry (for soild) in gambit

? how to define solid material for gambit

. How can I make it reads the solid phase in the multiphase model? Thanking you for any help regarding this problem.

do you have to construct your geometry within gambit, or do you have to import a cad file?

yes. I have to construct my geometry within gambit.

Yes. I have to construct my geometry within gambit.My problem is more for solid.

Do you have the possibilty to construct your geometry with a cad software? Because building an impeller with gambit won't be easy

sounds like ok, take care to model the fluid domain and not the solid one.
Solid particles for multiphase is embeded in Fluent (check user guide), but you don't have to model and mesh them (hopefully...)
