About This Lesson
- This project numerically simulates the Hydro-Abrasive Erosion in Pelton Turbine using ANSYS Fluent software.
- The 3-D geometry is designed in Design Modeler software.
- We used ANSYS Meshing Software to generate mesh; the element number equals 6,433,121.
- The multiphase VOF model simulates the water jet.
- The 2-way DPM model also enables the erosion of the solution.
- The rotational movement of the turbine is modeled using Mesh Motion Approach.
