Please bear with me as I explain the following image, which shows an aquaculture called &#8220;IPRS&#8221; or &#8220;In Pond Raceway System&#8221;. This system includes a large pond with three raceways, each occupying about 2-3% of the total pond area. The raceways are equipped with gates at the inlets and outlets to prevent fish from escaping into the pond, and an aerator at the beginning of each raceway.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ars.els-cdn.com\/content\/image\/3-s2.0-B9780128165096000136-f13-03-9780128165096.jpg\" alt=\"Raceways - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/divcomplatform.s3.amazonaws.com\/www.seafoodsource.com\/images\/54b0dd268396513d35a7add2038e88ae.jpg\" alt=\"In-pond raceway system installations surpass 7,000 in China | SeafoodSource\"><\/p>\n<p>Now, on to my questions. I&#8217;m a beginner, and I&#8217;d like to simulate an individual raceway with the gates, aerator, and fish waste. Currently, I&#8217;ve only simulated the raceway as a rectangular shape with four surfaces (including inlet and outlet surfaces), and I&#8217;ve assigned an air mass flux and water mass flow for the inlet.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/03\/20-03-2023-1679324572-mceclip1.png\"><\/p>\n<p>My goals are to simulate the water in the raceway in a steady state (including setting a water level if possible), create an area for the air (i.e., if the water depth is 1.5 meters and the total depth is 2 meters, the remaining 0.5 meters should be filled with air) *Problem 1*, simulate the aerator itself in the raceway *Problem 2*, and simulate the fish waste *Problem 3*.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s the best way for me to accomplish all of these goals or learn how to do so efficiently?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-275571","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_author_ip":["23.48.94.37"],"_bbp_subscription":["279528","218"],"_btv_view_count":["615"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["275571"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27784"],"_bbp_engagement":["218","279528"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["2"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["280918"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["280918"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-04-24 09:35:48"]},"test":"s-eman-mohiezewailcity-edu-eg"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/275571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/275571\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=275571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
