Volume of Fluid (VOF)-to-Discrete Phase Model (DPM): Impinging Jets

Atomization is the term used to describe the process of breaking up bulk liquids into smaller droplets. This breaking up happens due to the aerodynamic forces within the gas streams. A controlled version of flow atomization is what we call sprays, which have numerous applications in almost every field.

In this course, we will learn how to use VOF-to-DPM transition model using Ansys Fluent® fluid simulation software to simulate such complex scenarios.

Learning Outcomes:

Following completion of this course, you will be able to:

• Simulate flows involving flow atomization in Ansys Fluent.
• Setup a simulation using VOF-to-DPM transition model.
• Employ dynamic mesh adaptation.
• Setup and generate solution animations.

Prerequisites: 

• Completion of Ansys Fluent Beyond the Basics is highly recommended.
• Some experience with CFD simulations of multiphase flows is desirable.

Please note: These training materials were developed and tested in the 2023R2 release.
