Chapter 1: Introduction to Using <strong>ANSYS</strong> <strong>FLUENT</strong> in <strong>ANSYS</strong> Workbench: Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer in a<br />
Mixing Elbow<br />
Figure 1.36 <strong>ANSYS</strong> Workbench Prompt When the Upstream Mesh Has Changed<br />
2. Make sure that the unit of length is set to inches.<br />
General → Units...<br />
3. Check the mesh (optional).<br />
General → Check<br />
4. Revisit the boundary conditions for the small inlet.<br />
Boundary Conditions → velocity-inlet-small → Edit...<br />
Here, you need to set the hydraulic diameter to 1.5 in based on the new dimensions of the small<br />
inlet.<br />
5. Reinitialize the solution.<br />
Solution Initialization<br />
Keep the default Hybrid Initialization and click Initialize.<br />
6. Recalculate the solution.<br />
Run Calculation<br />
Keep the Number of Iterations set to 300 and click Calculate.<br />
7. Close <strong>ANSYS</strong> <strong>FLUENT</strong>.<br />
8. Revisit the results of the calculations in CFD-Post.<br />
Double-click the Results cell of the new-elbow fluid flow system to re-open CFD-Post where<br />
you can review the results of the new solution.<br />
9. Close CFD-Post.<br />
10. Save the elbow-workbench project in <strong>ANSYS</strong> Workbench.<br />
