Example Models

Turbulent Flow Through a Shell-and-Tube Heat ExchangerTurbulent Flow Through a Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger

This model studies a part of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger where hot water enters from above. The cooling medium flows through the tubes that, in this model, impose a constant temperature at the walls. Furthermore, the tubes are assumed...

Bending PipeBending Pipe

This model studies the fluid flow through a bending pipe in 3D for the Reynolds number 300 000. Because of the high Reynolds number, the k-epsilon turbulence model is used. Calculations with and without corner smoothing are performed. The...

Flow in a Bubble Column ReactorFlow in a Bubble Column Reactor

This example illustrates multiphase flow modeling in a bubble column reactor. The reactor is filled with water and gas bubbles are injected from the bottom. Due to buoyancy, the bubbles rise, inducing a circulating motion of the liquid....

Convective Cooling of a Potcore InductorConvective Cooling of a Potcore Inductor

The inductor is a common component in a variety of electrical devices. Its applications include power transformation and measurements, and it can also be used together with capacitors to create oscillators. In small devices with many...
