In the experiment, the condensation is drop-wise, so there is a complex interaction between the air and condensate droplets, increasing the pressure drop relative to a duct with no condensation.&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ideally, it would be nice for the model to account for this, but I assume it would take a lot of computational power and time, so the second best option for me would be to manually tune the pressure drop. I have tried the more complex Eulerian-Eulerian model, which solves for the momentum of both phases, however, this did not change my results at all so I am unsure how to progress the model at this stage.&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Would you have any ideas on how to either manually increase the pressure drop, or how to make the model account for the condensation-air interactions?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-393486","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/393486","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reply"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/393486\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=393486"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
