Hi,

I am doing numerical simulation on the material flow behaviour of disiimilar materials i.e steel and aluminum using ansys fluent.

I have run the simulation without vof, and temperature dependent thermal properties of Cp and K and also used viscosity as an udf.

My contour that I have attached I ran for 3000 iterations but the contour which came looks somewhat distorted or not as same as in literature.

So can anyone suggest what can be the possible modifications?

Hi, can y ou share the literature that you are working on.

Search the below in google scholar--

"The study of material flow behaviour in dissimilar material FSW of AA6061 and Cu-B370 alloys plates".

The skewness in the results is most likely an outcome of thermal diffusivity difference. One side has higher diffusivity than the other.
