Flow and Blend Time Simulation in a Mixing Tank: Sliding Mesh Setup and Visualization

In this course, building on the material from the course “Flow and Blend Time Simulation in a Mixing Tank, Steady-State Flow Transient-Tracer Method”, you will learn how to set up sliding mesh simulation to predict the blend time of two materials in a mixing tank using Ansys Fluent^® fluid simulation software. You will perform the transient simulation using the existing case and data files from the steady-state simulation to setup the sliding mesh approach, followed by a rigorous post-processing using Ansys EnSight^™ simulation data visualization software.

Learning Outcomes: 

Following completion of this course, you will be able to:

• Set up and run a transient sliding mesh simulation using Ansys Fluent software to predict the blend time.
• Use Ansys EnSight software to post-process and visualize the results.

Please note: These training materials were developed and tested in the 2023R2 release.
