Porous media characterization using Ansys CFD

[@mitchellsteindler]

This was very helpful, specifically because you talked through what you were doing and what it meant - thank you

So porous thickness corresponds to what? the distance between the pipes? Thanks for the video btw

[@gauravvamja3804]

it was a very nice explanation. Thank you so much for this video. I have a query for the pressure measurment in detail model. Why pressure drop was measured between inlet and outlet and not very close to the perforated plate (which we are planning to model as a porous zone). I believe that length of the upstream flow and downstream flow was choosen randomly. So if this length change pressure drop will also change (pressure drop is proponal to the pipe length) and hence co-efficient. Please kindly answey my query. Once again thank you so much.

The wall boundaries here should be symmetry or no slip so it does not matter how long the upstream and downstream pipe is. The pressure drop should not change.

Thanks a lot. However, the pressure drop data is mostly available with respect to flow rate and not versus velocity in industry so curve fitting of DP versus flow rate to get the coefficients remain valid ? thanks

[@OzenEngineeringSimulation]

Certainly

wonderful
