Hi! I'm modeling an open tank, using mutiphase model, phase1: air; phase2: non-newtonian fluid.
My problem is the flow throught the hole in the separating plate goes up to the top of the tank, like no gravity was set (in apparience). I have checked a lot of settings and I think they are fine: - Non-newtonian model activated and choosed - Negative gravity on Y axis - Pressure 1.73psig as boundary condition on inlet - Pressure 0psig as boundary condition on outlet - Pressure 0psig as boundary condition on ambient (top of tank) - Air density 1225 kg/m3 as Operation Condition - Patching in bottom region of tank, liquid fraction volume = 1 - 900 iterations was executed - When i try modeling water as Phase 1, results appear to be correct (fluid goes up to the bottom oulet). I will be grateful if someone can help to find the cause of error. Thanks! Last edited by ayanezc; July 9, 2017 at 18:55. Reason: Delete image |

Solved, missing phase asignation to phase 2. Thanks.
