As the semester progress, we decided to go ahead with the modeling of the pilot plan and proceed with 2D modeling of the plan. We modeled the flocculation tank with two baffles. The modeling process started with creation of geometry in Gambit. With the geometry, mesh was then created. Fluent was then used to analysis and obtain the solution. Applying proper boundary condition, we obtained pressure drop and velocity gradient profile along the turningflocculation tank. Our result shows good agreement with what we should expect. We further validate our solution by checking mesh convergence, further refining the mesh, use enhanced wall treatment, different turbulence model, boundary layer refinement. Both of us We work together most of the time. Yong Sheng's focus more has been on geometry and mesh creation using Gambit where Jorge is more focus in obtaining while Jorge's has been more on obtaining a solution using Fluent. Other than that, we work closely together most of the timeWe analyze the results together.
