Description

Description

The present problem simulates the Mixer Tank by ANSYS Fluent software. We perform this CFD project and investigate it by CFD analysis.

In industry, mixing is an operation that involves the manipulation of heterogeneous materials with the intent to make them more homogeneous. Industrial Mixer is a machine that blends, homogenizes, and mixes different materials into a single substance.

Mixers combine virtually any solid or liquid necessary to form the final product. Mixing is performed to allow heat and mass transfer to occur between one or more components or phases. Modern industrial processing almost always involves mixing as it is needed during manufacturing or processing.

Their powerful motors and blades allow mixers to work with various materials. These machines are widely used across many industries, including pharmaceutical, chemical, agriculture, food, and beverage.

In this project, a mixer tank is modeled, and the effect of its rotating impeller on the mixing procedure is investigated. In this tank, we consider mixxing 3 phases. Water flow and salt inlet have a mass flow rate of 0.6 kg/s.

The geometry is designed in ANSYS Design Modeler and meshed by ANSYS Meshing. The mesh type used for this geometry is unstructured, and the total element number is 152641.

Mixer Methodology

This simulation has been done in 3 phases: air, water, and salt. So, the simulation uses the VOF multiphase model for the three phases of air, water, and salt. MRF model is also used to model the rotation of the impeller.

The rotational speed of this tank is equal to 10 rpm.

Mixer Conclusion

The contours of mixture density, velocity, phase ID, and volume fractions of water, air, and salt are obtained. As it is clear from the contours, due to the impeller’s rotation, the tank’s three-phase mixing phenomenon has occurred.

    So, how does the simulation deal with the impacts of different fluid characteristics?

      Well, the simulation has a model that’s spot-on at grabbing the impacts of different fluid properties, like density and stickiness, on the whole mixing thing.

    This Mixer Tank simulation seems very comprehensive. Can you explain how the MRF model helps with simulating the impeller’s rotation, and how it affects the mixing process?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      The MRF (Multiple Reference Frame) model is used to simulate the rotational movement of the impeller without actually physically rotating the mesh. In this model, we define a rotating reference frame within our computational domain that encompasses the impeller. Inside this frame, the impeller ‘rotates’ by subjecting it to rotational flow conditions in accordance to the desired rotation speed (in this case, 10 rpm). It generates flow patterns that resemble those created by a real rotating impeller, leading to adequate simulation of the mixing process within the tank. The rotation introduces shear and mixing forces, which affect the mixing process, causing homogenization of the different phases within the tank.

    I’m interested in knowing how the solver determined the necessary iterations for convergence in this simulation. Does it use a predefined number of iterations, or is it adjusted dynamically?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      Convergence in a CFD simulation such as the Mixer Tank is usually assessed based on the residual levels of the governing equations and set monitors for key variables that indicate when a steady state has been reached, or the transient solution is adequately resolved. The solver does not necessarily have a predefined number of iterations; instead, it continues to iterate until the specified convergence criteria have been met. These criteria are often user-defined and may include factors such as the continuity, momentum, and species conservation residuals falling below a certain threshold, as well as monitored quantities like mass and energy imbalances or specific flow parameters reaching a steady or repeatable pattern in a transient analysis._dynamicmesh

    I’m very impressed with how the three-phase mixing is visualized in the simulation! It clearly shows the mixer’s efficiency. Can you also provide insights about how the mixture’s homogeneity changes over time?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      Thank you for your kind words! While the specific time-dependent homogeneity changes are not detailed here, generally, the simulation demonstrates how these phases interact and mix in response to the impeller’s motion. To gain insights on how homogeneity changes over time, the simulation results can be analyzed at various time steps to observe the evolution of the mixture’s uniformity.
