I&#8217;ve been trying to find online how the model is calculated, reading the models paper etc., but nothing seems to provide a good outline to the conditions that need to be met in order for the flat fan model to work. I have attached some images of the settings that I have tried most recently. Ideally, the flow rate should be around 0.125 kg\/s. Could you wonderful people help me get an understanding of how the flat fan model works and what parameters are essential to the success generation of this DPM simulation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/06-02-2024-1707230903-mceclip0.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/06-02-2024-1707230930-mceclip1.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/06-02-2024-1707230964-mceclip2.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/06-02-2024-1707230987-mceclip3.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/06-02-2024-1707231025-mceclip4.png\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-349398","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["338605","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["96.7.218.215"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["702"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["349398"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","338605"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["16"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["349916"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["349916"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-02-08 15:02:32"]},"test":"janesjomail-gvsu-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/349398","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\/349398\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=349398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
