How to Model Three Phase Clay Slurry in CFX 5.5

August 27, 2002, 00:52

Hello everyone,

I would like to model the movement of the clay slurry in the thickener. The clay slurry consists of at least three fluids: dispersed solid phase --sand, dispersed solid phase -- clay and continuous phase of water. In CFX 5.5.1 at most two fluids can be modelled. So anyone know how I can resolve this problem.

Thanks in advance!

Actually, you should be able to set up N phase problems in 5.5.1. Where does CFX-Build say you can't?

Thank you. I got it.
