Hello Ansys Community,<\/p>\n

I am solving a DPM steady state as well as unsteady state simulation with unsteady particle tracking of lubricating-oil with the unsteady continuous fluid as air.<\/p>\n

I am trying to simulate a two-phase flow(air and oil) in a circular pipe (Dia. 5mm and length 20mm) using DPM. Can anyone please address the following problem?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

  1. I have extracted the particle data (reports -> Discrete Phase -> sample -> outlet) both in a steady and transient state. The main aim of this simulation is to get the mass flow rate of the particles at the outlet. I got the mass flow rate results for the respective particle size is obtained. But in the case of transient state simulation, the mass flow rate data is not getting saved. <\/li>\n
  2. From the console panel, it shows that the particles trapped were 137 out of the injected 20k particles. Is it possible to get data on the different sizes of particles that are trapped on the wall? If yes, can you suggest a solution on how to obtain the data?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here is my setup:<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    Time-> Steady<\/p>\n

    Gravity-> Y: -9.81 m\/s^2<\/p>\n

    Viscous-> Laminar<\/p>\n

    Discrete Phase (uncoupled and no forces are added except drag force)<\/p>\n

    Discrete phase on (rosin rammler particle distribution with surface injection)<\/p>\n

    Boundary Conditions: Inlet & outlet DPM: escape<\/p>\n

    Wall DPM: trap<\/p>\n

    Methods -> Simple<\/p>\n

    Residuals -> 1e-6<\/p>\n

    Initialize: Standard<\/p>\n

    Run Calculation: No. of iterations: 1000<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    Time -> Transient (The same procedure as that of steady but the transient conditions were considered)<\/p>\n

    DPM (uncoupled and no forces are added except drag force)<\/p>\n

    Type-> Fixed<\/p>\n

    Number of Time Steps: 1000<\/p>\n

    Time Step Size: 1e-5<\/p>\n

    Max Iterations: 20<\/p>\n

    Reporting interval: 1<\/p>\n

    Profile update interval: 1<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    I have attached the picture of the sample data collected.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    Steady: <\/p>\n
