CFD Flocculation Tank Simulation Meeting Minutes

Fall 2008 Minutes

Novermber 20, 2008

Accomplishments

• Analyze in a tighter range the energy dissipation rate region and found out that there is a "bump" in the distribution
• Finished the UDF script for analyzing the performance parameter (e_theta, e1/3_theta_e1/2_theta)

Metrics

 Outcomes

• Realized the bump has something related to uniformity of energy dissipation rate

Issues

• UDF script not working properly. Need further troubleshooting the script
• Need to find ways to quantify the bump and relate that to uniformity of energy dissipation rate
