The system I am modelling consists of two immiscible phases, air &amp; water, where I am using the transient VOF solver to track the deformation of the interface (see picture below).&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I want to introduce a tracer which is miscible with the water phase to track the concentration and estimate mixing times in the tank, where the tracer will be injected on the free surface. I wanted to ask how do I set up such a simulation (i.e., what model do I need to select in ANSYS, what is the general methodlogy\/strategy). Also will the VOF solver be capable of supporting the flow physics for the tracer injection study consisting of two misible phases (water-tracer, binary liquid) with one immisicble phase (air). I ask as all current studies in the literature which have simulated tracer injection only consider a flat liquid surface (i.e., no VOF).&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-387986","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["282802","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["194.80.232.16"],"_btv_view_count":["236"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_edit_last":["282802"],"_bbp_revision_log":["a:1:{i:391048;a:2:{s:6:\"author\";i:282802;s:6:\"reason\";s:0:\"\";}}"],"_bbp_topic_id":["387986"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","282802"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["2"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["388048"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["388048"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-10-03 18:04:36"]},"test":"ll17s5rleeds-ac-uk"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387986","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":1,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387986\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":391048,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387986\/revisions\/391048"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387986"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
