Results of a Flow in a duct, need confirmation

buxZED · October 13, 2012, 13:39

Hi all,

This is my first time using CFD
And below is a result I generated for a simple flow inside a duct. Can someone confirm this looks ok/ appears to be correct?

results.jpg

Parameters I used are given below

Air Velocity - 10 m/s
Air Temperature - 20 oC
Height of Blocks - 0.04 m
Height of inlet - 0.2 m
Height of outlet - 0.286 m
Distance between expansion & B1 - 0.4 m
Distance between B1 and B2 - 0.2 m
Length of inlet & expansion/ Length of B2 & outlet - 0.6 m
Radius of curved edge - 0.04 m

left wall inlet, opposite wall is the outlet

two blocks are kept at constant temperature

I thin you should ask Dr. Reza about it. He will tell you if it is correct or not?
