Hi guys,
I'm new to ansys fluent. I am currently simulating a model where pressurized water (about 40 psi) goes into a pipe and comes out of 5 smaller outlets at atmospheric pressure. I know the volume flow rate of water going into the pipe. I want to find out the volume flow rate of water coming out. This is the general setup of my model Model: SST k-omega Material: water (liquid) Boundary condition: Inlet: pressure inlet, inlet pressure 40 psi, intensity and hydraulic diameter Outlets: pressure outlet,backflow ref frame (absolute), backflow direction specification method (normal to boundary), backflow pressure specification (total pressure), turbulence intensity and hydraulic diameter How can I calculate the total volume flow rate out of the outlets? Is this setup good enough or is there a better setup? Is there a way to input inlet volume flow rate in ansys fluent? I understand that adding picture would help, but I can't do that due to intellectual property concerns |
