θSuggestions on Reorganizing CFD Wiki Pages

To best present our current understanding of AguaClara technologies based on CFD simulation results, the following logical structure is suggested:

...

• define:
  • mesh
  • FLUENT set up
  • solution scheme (1st/2nd/etc. order)

• validate:
  • mesh sensitivity
  • convergence
  • turbulence models
    • compare simulation results with experimental data
    • compare between different turbulence models
  • sensitivity to boundary conditions

• automation:
  • mesh
  • UDF

2. Simulation Analysis (past simulation experiments)

• Strain Rate, ε, kinematic viscosity
• vary clearance height
• Reynolds number
• Gθ
• Effect of Reynolds number on ε
• Optimizing: uniform energy dissipation rate approach
• Optimizing: performance parameter approach
• Reynolds Stress model
