I was wondering if is possible to run a two-phase flow in Fluent using just one viscosity as function of concentration (C). It means that at certain point viscosity would be a newtonian one (C=1) or a non-newtonian ( C is different from 1). In summary, I would like to implement a viscosity function that depends on concentration and shear rate and use just one fluid with a variable viscosity function to simulate a two-phase flow. Is it possible in Fluent ?

Thanks.

Concentration of what? We routinely model slurries as nonNewtonian fluids, blood being one of the more common.

Hello Rob. I will check better this subject and return later.
Thanks.
