TransAT Tutorial Manual                                  5.3. Transport of particles in a pipe


               5.3     Transport of particles in a pipe


               5.3.1    Prerequisites
                   • TransAT

                   • TransATUI

                   • Paraview (or Tecplot)


               5.3.2    Problem Description
               In this tutorial a single-phase flow transporting particles through a pipe is modelled in 3D using
               TransAT’s Immersed Surface Technology (IST) for object representation. Water and particles
               flow in through an inlet at a velocity of 0.005 m/s with a laminar profile. The aim is to get the
               velocity profile and the distribution of particles in the pipe over time.


               5.3.3    Problem Setup
                   • Domain: 1.524m × 0.22m × 0.22m resolved by a mesh of 50 × 25 × 25 cells.

                   • Inflow: velocity 0.005 m/s, laminar velocity inflow with particles.

                   • Outflow: fixed pressure

                   • Fluid: Water

                   • Reynolds number = 778

                   • Pipe diameter = 6 inch (15.24 cm)
                   • Ratio  L  = 10
