    Oil Jet Impact Project Description

    In this project, numerical simulation of Oil Jet Impact on the Water Tank has been done using Ansys Fluent software. the system consists of three different fluids, including air as the primary fluid and one secondary fluid is liquid water, and the last is oil. The Eulerian multiphase model has been used. The oil is entering the domain with the speed of 8m/s with gravity considered as -9.81 m/s-2 on the y-axis.

    Geometry & Mesh

    The 2-D domain of this simulation has been designed in SpaceClaim software. Domain has to inlet as jet flow entrance and sides as an outlet. Also, the pipe side is wall boundary.

    The meshing of this present model has been generated by Ansys Meshing software. The mesh grid is structured, and the total cell number is about 21000.

    Oil Jet Impact CFD Simulation

    The simulation was performed in ANSYS Fluent using a 2D Turbulent, multiphase model. The Multi-Fluid VOF (Eulerian-based) approach was employed to capture interactions between three immiscible phases: oil, water, and air. Boundary conditions included an oil inlet jet,  pressure outlet, and no-slip walls boundaries. A transient solver with fine time steps was used to resolve the interface deformation and dynamic behavior of the impinging jet.

    Oil Jet Impact Results

    At the end of the solution process, two-dimensional animation and counters of velocity, air, and water volume fraction are obtained. The goal is to simulate a three-phase system as so in the beginning domain contains to liquid water and air, by the time oil jet enters domain and continues to reach water surface, as impact because of the heterogeneousness of water and oil they don’t mix. So oil pushes water around, and spall’s this and makes a vortex. This simulation is an excellent example of three heterogeneous fluid in one domain and they behavior.
