Dear all

I am solving a problem of LNG (liquified natural gas) injection into a tank. The LNG temp at cryogenic conditions, once liquid injected into a tank after some distance the liquid get vaporized due to inside tank temperature. For solving this problem I am using DPM, but I am not sure which injection method is it suited for this problem

can anybody suggest which injection method is suitable or any other approches is it fit for this problem.

U r suggestions are appreciable

Thanks in advance

Look at the tut on using the DPM, it includes vapourisation effects.

Hi,

I am no expert in this, but I guess you have got to look at the actual nozzle used and see if there is any pre-set nozzle setting in FLUENT from the manual.

If there is none, you can try the 'multiple injection' and set all the points at one location such that they form a nozzle. I am using such method for rotary disc atomization.

Another thing to look at is your nozzle spray angle and droplet size distribution. This will take some effort to measure or estimate.
