Contaminant-Removal from Wastewater in a Secondary Clarifier by Sedimentation

Wastewater treatment is a several-step process for removing contaminants. Firstly, large, solid particles are removed through sedimentation, flotation, and filtration. And then in a second step, biological treatment causes the smaller particles to aggregate, forming so called flocs. ... Read More

The epitaxial growth of SiC by PVT method

Silicon Carbide (SiC) Epitaxial Furnace is a specialized equipment for the production and preparation of SiC Epitaxial Wafers. This model demonstrates the process of preparing SiC Epitaxial Wafer based on the Physical Vapor Transport (PVT) method in a furnace. This involves heating the ... Read More

Tsunami Runup onto a Complex 3D Beach, Monai Valley

This example is an established benchmark case for the shallow water equations that models a 1/400 scaled laboratory experiment of the tsunami runup in Monai Valley in Japan. The experiment was made at the Central Research Institute for Electric Power Industry (CRIEIPI) in Abiko, Japan, ... Read More

Large Eddy Simulation of a 3D Hill Geometry

The present example simulates the turbulent flow over a 3D hill geometry using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) interface with synthetic turbulence at the inlet boundary. Read More

Coriolis Flowmeter: FSI Simulation in the Frequency Domain

Coriolis flowmeters, also known as mass flowmeters or inertial flowmeters, measure the mass flow rate of a fluid traveling through it. It makes use of the fact that the fluid's inertia through an oscillating tube causes the tube to twist in proportion to the mass flow rate. Typically, ... Read More

Resin Transfer Molding of a Wind Turbine Blade

This example shows the modeling of a resin transfer molding (RTM) process for a wind turbine blade using the Two-Phase Flow, Level Set, Brinkman Equations interface. Resin is injected into a preform consisting of different composites with different anisotropic permeabilities. Read More

Tilted Pad Thrust Bearing

Tilted pad thrust bearings are used in rotating machineries with high thrust loading. The thrust load is transferred from a sliding part to a stationary part through hydrodynamic oil films. The tilted pad thrust bearing consists of a series of flat surfaces sliding over stationary tilted ... Read More

Turbulent Flow Around a Factory Chimney

Wind strakes on a chimney impede the uniform detachment along the height of the chimney, which can induce vibrations and eventually lead to fatigue at the footing of the chimney. A stationary turbulent flow simulation is computed for a chimney with strakes mounted on a factory building. ... Read More

Glass Fiber Drawing Process

This example is about the modeling of the fiber drawing process. Thermal fiber drawing is a process in which a comparatively thicker structure is heated and drawn into extended lengths of microstructured fiber. This process is done by passing them through the furnace and pulling them ... Read More

Acoustic Liner with a Grazing Background Flow

This model demonstrates how to compute the acoustic properties of an acoustic liner with a grazing flow. The liner consists of eight resonators with thin slits. The background grazing flow is at Mach number 0.3. The sound pressure level above the liner is computed and can be compared to ... Read More
