| Abstract |
In this bachelor thesis, the aim is to investigate the effect of rotational motion of USP2 mixer blade
in a fluid medium, water, by utilizing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling.
The goal of this study will be achieved by realizing the following objectives:
1. Identify the equations required to achieve the goal.
2. Design USP2 in the way that we can use it in situations without any mistakes by using Dassault
Systèmes Solidworks.
3. Transferring the final design for Solidwork to ANSYS Fluent to do the required simulations.
4. Perform simulations until convergence is reached (residuals are: at least 10-3
for pressure and 10-4
for other parameters)
5. I will use two different speeds in my case 2.5 rad/s and 5 rad/s.
6. Check the results and see the difference between the two speeds that we used in these simulations
for the velocity and pressure.
7. Write a conclusion explaining the results that we get and the different between the two speeds that
we used. |
