Hello everyone !
I need some help with negative pressures appearing in my simulation. I am running an incompressible, steady-state case with a Newtonian fluid using simpleFoam in laminar. Umoy = around 50m/s into the narrowest part which length is around 100 micrometers for a 0.00005 kg/m/s viscosity so approximate Re=100. I know I am using Gauge Pressure but here the problem is that they are huge... (+/- 30bars approximately). I am modeling a flow through a valve with a pressure BC of 0bar at the outlet and a velocity BC at the inlet, based on the flow rate continuity as I know the flow rate I want to go through my valve. I can understand that by the geometry and the tough angle, there is a depression but why that much and why in negative? Should not I have more pressure at the inlet in that case? I put pictures of the place where it happens, the mesh and glyphs. Please help me ![]() Last edited by Estelle13; May 28, 2019 at 05:07. |
