Solid-liquid flow modeling in centrifugal pump impeller

pankajkgupta · March 28, 2017, 12:49

Hi! Everybody! I am a new member. I wish to solve two-phase solid-liquid flow through centrifugal pump impeller. There is already a Video tutorial on Youtube by CFD.NINJA that gives how to model single phase flow in CFX for pump impeller.
So, can anyone tell me the details of how to model solid-liquid two-phase flow in CFX for same pump impeller. Many thanks in advance. Please kindly help me as I have not been able to resolve it.

Have a look at the tutorials provided with CFX. It gives examples of how to set up multiphase models like this. You can download them on the ANSYS customer website.

Thanks Mr. Glenn! However, I did consult with the multiphase tutorials with CFX. But, I could not still obtain any solution. Almost all of the tutorials are with gas-liquid two-phase flows. Whereas, I wish to have liquid-solid two-phase flow. THis makes the entire difference to the modeling and other parameters.
So, once again someone please help me in modeling solid-liquid two-phase flow through centrofugal pump impeller.
