What is Sliding/Moving Mesh?
When a time-accurate solution for rotor-stator interaction (rather than a time-averaged solution) is desired, you must use the sliding mesh model to compute the unsteady flow field. The sliding mesh model is the most accurate method for simulating flows in multiple moving reference frames and is the most computationally demanding. As was mentioned, the sliding mesh model is theoretically the most accurate method for simulating rotating flows, and it can correctly describe the whole transient startup. However, it is also the most computationally demanding. This technique, applied to the specific case, results in two cell zones created separately. Each cell zone is bounded by an interface that meets the opposing cell zone. The two cell zones will slide relative to one another along the mesh interface in discrete steps. The AMI (arbitrary mesh interface) operates by projecting one patch’s geometry onto the other. In other words, the two sub-domains are geometrically separated but numerically connected by the AMI, ensuring that the values of a generic field are the same on both sides of the interface. The external cell is a simple steady partition in which the mesh does not move during the calculations. Instead, the internal partition, the cylindrical one, is a cell zone that rotates during the simulations. After each step, the internal mesh is rotated at a prescribed angle. The advantage of this technique is that it ensures the best accuracy avoiding, at the same time, mesh deformation.
ANSYS Fluent has various modules for modeling and simulating the moving objects (moving reference frame, moving mesh, dynamic mesh, moving wall). Each module has its limitation, advantage, and disadvantage, and in most problems, only one and a special module can correctly model the system of interest. For example, we can model HAWTs by both MRF and moving mesh modules, and the result of both modules would be the same. However, due to the high computational time of the moving-mesh module, it’s more economical to use the MRF module, and we prefer to model HAWT by the MRF method. But for VAWT, it is impossible to model it with the MRF model because the wind turbine blade situation VS wind direction will change over time. Therefore, VAWTs must be simulated using a moving mesh module.
