Figure 7.4: Velocity Vectors on the y=0 Plane

The flow pattern shows that the flow enters the catalytic converter as a jet, with recirculation on either side of the jet. As it passes through the porous substrate, it decelerates and straightens out, and exhibits a more uniform velocity distribution. This allows the metal catalyst present in the substrate to be more effective.

c.Select y=0 in the Surfaces selection list.

d.Click Display and close the Contours dialog box.

The pressure changes rapidly in the middle section, where the fluid velocity changes as it passes through the porous substrate. The pressure drop can be high, due to the inertial and viscous resistance of the porous media. Determining this pressure drop is one of the goals of the CFD analysis. In the next step, you will learn how to plot the pressure drop along the centerline of the substrate.

Setup and Solution

Figure 7.6: Plot of Static Pressure on the porous-cl Line Surface

As seen in Figure 7.6: Plot of Static Pressure on the porous-cl Line Surface (p. 273), the pressure drop across the porous substrate is approximately 300 Pa.

10.Display filled contours of the velocity in the X direction on the x=95, x=130, and x=165 surfaces (Figure 7.7: Contours of the X Velocity on the x=95, x=130, and x=165 Surfaces (p. 274)).

b.Disable Global Range in the Options group box.

c.Select Velocity... and X Velocity from the Contours of drop-down lists.

d.Select x=130, x=165, and x=95 in the Surfaces selection list, and deselect y=0.

e.Click Display and close the Contours dialog box.

Figure 7.7: Contours of the X Velocity on the x=95, x=130, and x=165 Surfaces

The velocity profile becomes more uniform as the fluid passes through the porous media. The velocity is very high at the center (the area in red) just before the nitrogen enters the substrate and then decreases as it passes through and exits the substrate. The area in green, which corresponds to a moderate velocity, increases in extent.

11.Use numerical reports to determine the average, minimum, and maximum of the velocity distribution before and after the porous substrate.

Setup and Solution

a.Select Mass-Weighted Average from the Report Type drop-down list.

b.Select Velocity and X Velocity from the Field Variable drop-down lists.

c.Select x=165 and x=95 in the Surfaces selection list.

d.Click Compute.

e.Select Facet Minimum from the Report Type drop-down list and click Compute.

f.Select Facet Maximum from the Report Type drop-down list and click Compute.

The numerical report of average, maximum and minimum velocity can be seen in the main ANSYS Fluent console.

g.Close the Surface Integrals dialog box.

The spread between the average, maximum, and minimum values for X velocity gives the degree to which the velocity distribution is non-uniform. You can also use these numbers to calculate the velocity ratio (that is, the maximum velocity divided by the mean velocity) and the space velocity (that is, the product of the mean velocity and the substrate length).

Custom field functions and UDFs can be also used to calculate more complex measures of non-uniformity, such as the standard deviation and the gamma uniformity index.
