Hello everyone,
I have got a model of a mixing vessel with a stirrer inside. After making sure the model is properly set-up for transient analysis I want to do some simulations on the mixing time (blend time) it would take for the fluid to become homogenous after injecting a specific amount of substance inside it (say for example powder or another fluid).
Can solidworks offer such a feature? I would expect it would either be under Tracer Study or Particle Study?
I would welcome your thoughts and suggestions. I have attached a snapshot of the tank setup.
Both tracer and particle studies are post processes. You could try them but it really depends on how you are going to measure homogeneity. More common would be to create a new flow stream in the system and measure volume fraction In multiple locations. But then you need an outlet.
