FLUENT算例 (15)

fluent经典算例Tutorial:Modeling a Single-Channel,Counter-Flow Polymer Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel CellIntroductionThe purpose of this tutorial is to provide guidelines and recommendations for using the PEM Fuel Cell add-on module available in FLUENT.This tutorial demonstrates how to do the following:Build and generate a mesh for a single-channel PEM fuel cell.Assign zone names and types that are required in the FLUENT PEM fuel cell add-onmodule.Import the mesh into FLUENT,set up the case,and run the calculations.Postprocess the results.PrerequisitesThis tutorial assumes you are familiar with both the GAMBIT and FLUENT interfaces and that you have a good understanding of the basic setup and solution procedures.Details of most steps will not be shown explicitly.If you have not used FLUENT before,it would be helpful to?rst refer to the FLUENT6.3 User’s Guide and theFLUENT6.3Tutorial Guide.You can also refer to the GAMBIT User’s Guide,GAMBIT Tutorial Guide,and GAMBIT Modeling Guide.Problem DescriptionA schematic description of a single,straight-channel,counter-?ow PEM fuel cell is shown inFigure1.The dimensions of the fuel cell are2.4×2.88×125mm in the x,y,and z directions, respectively.This model represents a repeating channel of a larger counter-?ow PEM fuel cell.The cross-sectional area of the membrane electrode assemblyis2.4×125=300mm2.All the zones as marked in Figure1(with exception of the optional cooling channel)must be de?ned as separate zones within GAMBIT.Note that there can be multiples of each zone.For example,there can be multiple cathode gas di?usion layers,each with di?erent material properties.In FLUENT6.3,all continuum zones must be of the?uid type except for the current collectors which may be either solid or? uid.For simplicity,it is recommended that you make the current collectors solid continuum zones.Modeling a Single-Channel,Counter-Flow Polymer Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel CellFigure1:PEM Fuel Cell ZonesFor details about the FLUENT PEMFC model,refer to o f FLUENT6.3Fuel Cell ModulesManual.Note:If you would like to bypass all GAMBIT steps and proceed to the FLUENT portion of the tutorial,skip to Step. Preparation in GAMBIT1.Create a folder called pem-single-channel to contain the?les generated in thistutorial.2.Start GAMBIT and specify this folder as the working folder.To simplify the geometry construction and meshing steps,a journal?le,pem-single-channel.jou is provided.This?le contains GAMBIT instructions which will create the geometry and gen-erate the mesh.It is recommended that you step through the journal?le to understand eachof the steps and recognize the assigned zone boundary types pertinent to fuel cell problems.Geometry Creation and Mesh GenerationStep1:Geometry Creation1.Create a rectangular face primitive in the xy plane.Operation?→Geometry?→Face?→Create Real Rectangular Face(a)Enter2.4for Width and1.2for Height.Modeling a Single-Channel,Counter-Flow Polymer Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel Cell(b)Select+X+Y for Direction,(c)Click Apply and close the Create Real Rectangular Face panel.2.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by0.21units in the y-direction.Operation?→Geometry?→Face?→Sweep Edges3.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by0.012units in the y-direction.4.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by0.036units in the y-direction.5.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by0.012units in the y-direction.6.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by0.21units in the y-direction.7.Create another face by sweeping the uppermost edge by1.2units in the y-direction.8.Create a rectangular face with dimensions(x,y)=(0.8,0.6).Use+x+y for the di-rection(so that the global coordinate system origin is in the lower left corner of theface).9.Move the newly created face using a vector of(0.8,0.6,0).Operation?→Geometry?→Face?→Move/Copy Faces10.Copy the face by1.08units in the y-direction.11.Split the lowermost face with the face you just created.Operation?→Geometry?→Face?→Split Face12.Similarly,split the uppermost face with its internal face.The resulting mesh should appear as shown in Figure2.Step2:Mesh Generation(Manual)1.Mesh the edges as shown in Figure2.The numbers of cells along each edge are indicated below.The geometry and mesh are symmetric about its horizontal midplane.Operation?→Mesh?→Edge?→Mesh Edges2.Mesh the nine faces using the Quad Submap scheme.Operation?→Mesh?→Face?→Mesh Faces3.Create an edge by sweeping any one of the vertices by125units in the positive z direction.Operation?→Geometry?→Edge?→Sweep VerticesModeling a Single-Channel,Counter-Flow Polymer Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel CellFigure2:Edge and Face Mesh(a)Select Vector for Path and click the De?ne button.(b)Enable Magnitude and enter125.(c)Select Positive for Z from the Direction list.(d)Click Apply in the Vector De?nition form.(e)Click Apply and close the Sweep Vertices form.4.Mesh the newly created edge using a double-sided graded edge mesh that consists of 60elements.(a)Enable Double sided.(b)Enter1.1for Ratio1and Ratio2.(c)Click Apply and close the Mesh Edges form.5.Create volumes by sweeping the nine faces along the newly created edge.

Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel CellFigure3:Volume MeshStep3:Zone Assignments and Mesh ExportFLUENT’s PEM fuel cell add-on module requires that boundary and continuum zones berigorously de?ned.Care should be taken in order to have a logical system of naming eachzone to represent each of the regions shown in Figure1.At a minimum,the boundary zones that are required include the following:Inlet and outlet zones for the anode gas channel.Inlet and outlet zones for the cathode gas channel.Surfaces representing anode and cathode terminals.Optional boundary zones that could be de?ned include any voltage jump surfaces,interiorow surfaces,or non-conformal interfaces that are required.The following continuum zones are also required:Flow channels for anode-and cathode-sideuids.Anode and cathode current collectors.Anode and cathode gas diusion layers.Anode and cathode catalyst layers.Electrolyte membrane.The inlets should all be assigned the boundary zone type MASS FLOW INLET and outletsshould be assigned the PRESSURE OUTLET type.The terminals are the regions where thevoltage(or current?ux density)is known.Normally,the anode is grounded(V=0)andModeling a Single-Channel,Counter-Flow Polymer Electrolyte Membrane(PEM)Fuel Cell the cathode terminal is at a?xed potential that is less than the open-circuit potential.Bothof the terminals should be assigned the WALL boundary type.Voltage jump zones can optionally be placed between the various components(such asbetween the gas di?usion layer and the current collector).Faces which represent?uid/solidinterfaces must be of type WALL.Additional interior zones may be de?ned for purposes of post-processing.If such interiorzones are de?ned,they should have no e?ect on the solution.FLUENT’s PEM add-on module supports the use of non-conformal grid interfaces.In such cases,it is recommended that the INTERFACE boundary type be used halfway between the membrane continuum zone,and that the mesh on opposite sides of the interface have similar size,aspect ratio,and orientation.In such cases,the membrane will consist of two uid zones.1.Assign boundary zones according to

经过痛苦的一段经历，终究将局部成绩本相大白，为了使保位同仁不再经过我之痛苦，此刻将本人多孔介质经验公布如下，但愿各位能加精：之杨若古兰创作1.Gambit中划分网格以后，定义须要做为多孔介质的区域为fluid,与缺省的fluid分别开来，再定义其名称，我习气将名称定义为porous;2.在fluent中定义鸿沟条件define-boundary condition-porous(刚定义的名称)，将其设置鸿沟条件为fluid,点击set 按钮即弹出与fluid鸿沟条件一样的对话框，选中porous zone与laminar复选框,再点击porous zone标签即出现一个带有滚动条的界面；3.porous zone设置方法：1）定义矢量：二维定义一个矢量，第二个矢量方向不必定义，是与第一个矢量方向正交的；三维定义二个矢量，第三个矢量方向不必定义，是与第一、二个矢量方向正交的；（如何晓得矢量的方向：打开grid图，看看X,Y,Z的方向，如果是X向，矢量为1,0,0,同理Y向为0,1,0，Z向为0,0,1,如果所须要的方向与坐标轴正向相反，则定义矢量为负）圆锥坐标与球坐标请参考fluent帮忙.2）定义粘性阻力1/a与内部阻力C2：请参看本人上一篇博文“终究搞清fluent中多孔粘性阻力与内部阻力的计算方法”，此处不赘述；3）如果了定义粘性阻力1/a与内部阻力C2,就不必定义C1与C0，由于这是两种分歧的定义方法，C1与C0只在幂率模型中出现，该处坚持默认就行了；4）定义孔隙率porousity，默认值1暗示全开放，此值按实验测值填写即可.完了，其他设置与普通k-e或RSM不异.总结一下，与君共享!Tutorial 7. Modeling Flow Through Porous Media IntroductionMany industrial applications involve the modeling of flow through porous media, suchas filters, catalyst beds, and packing. This tutorial illustrates how to set up and solve aproblem involving gas flow through porous media.The industrial problem solved here involves gas flow through acatalytic converter. Catalyticconverters are commonly used to purify emissions from gasoline and diesel enginesby converting environmentally hazardous exhaust emissions to acceptable substances.Examples of such emissions include carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), andunburned hydrocarbon fuels. These exhaust gas emissions are forced through a substrate,which is a ceramic structure coated with a metal catalyst such as platinum or palladium.The nature of the exhaust gas flow is a very important factor in determining the performanceof the catalytic converter. Of particular importance is the pressure gradientand velocity distribution through the substrate. Hence CFD analysis is used to designefficient catalytic converters: by modeling the exhaust gas flow, the pressure drop andthe uniformity of flow through the substrate can be determined. In this tutorial, FLUENTis used to model the flow of nitrogen gas through a catalytic converter geometry, so thatthe flow field structure may be analyzed.This tutorial demonstrates how to do the following:_ Set up a porous zone for the substrate with appropriate resistances._ Calculate a solution for gas flow through the catalytic converterusing the pressurebasedsolver._ Plot pressure and velocity distribution on specified planes of the geometry._ Determine the pressure drop through the substrate and the degree of non-uniformityof flow through cross sections of the geometry using X-Y plots and numerical reports.Problem DescriptionThe catalytic converter modeled here is shown in Figure 7.1. The nitrogen flows inthrough the inlet with a uniform velocity of 22.6 m/s, passes through a ceramic monolithsubstrate with square shaped channels, and then exits through the outlet.While the flow in the inlet and outlet sections is turbulent, the flow through the substrateis laminar and is characterized by inertial and viscous loss coefficients in the flow (X)direction. The substrate is impermeable in other directions, which is modeled using losscoefficients whose values are three orders of magnitude higher than in the X direction.Setup and SolutionStep 1: Grid1.

Click Display and close the Display Grid panel.(b) Enter 5 for the Scale.(c) Set Skip to 1.(d) Select y=0 from the Surfaces selection list.(e) Click Display and close the Vectors panel.The flow pattern shows that the flow enters the catalytic converter as a jet, withrecirculation on either side of the jet. As it passes through the porous substrate, itdecelerates and straightens out, and exhibits a more uniform velocity distribution.This allows the metal catalyst present in the substrate to be more effective.Figure 7.4: Velocity Vectors on the y=0 Plane8. Display filled contours of static pressure on the y=0 plane. Display /Contours...(a) Enable the Filled option.(b) Enable the Draw Grid option to open the Display Grid panel.i.

The pressure drop can be high, due to theinertial and viscous resistance of the porous media. Determining this pressure dropis a goal of CFD analysis. In the next step, you will learn how to plot the pressuredrop along the centerline of the substrate.9. Plot the static pressure across the line surface porous-cl.Plot /XY Plot...(a) Make sure that the Pressure... and Static Pressure are selectedfrom the Y AxisFunction drop-down lists.(b) Select porous-cl from the Surfaces selection list.(c) Click Plot and close the Solution XY Plot panel.Figure 7.6: Plot of the Static Pressure on the porous-cl Line SurfaceIn Figure 7.6, the pressure drop across the porous substrate can be seen to beroughly 300 Pa.10. Display filled contours of the velocity in the X direction on the x=95, x=130 andx=165 surfaces.Display /Contours...(a) Disable the Global Range option.(b) Select Velocity... and X Velocity from the Contours of drop-down lists.(c) Select x=130, x=165, and x=95 from the Surfaces selection list, and deselecty=0.(d) Click Display and close the Contours panel.The velocity profile becomes more uniform as the fluid passes through the porousmedia. The velocity is very high at the center (the area in red) just before thenitrogen enters the substrate and then decreases as it passes through and exits thesubstrate. The area in green, which corresponds to a moderate velocity, increasesin extent.Figure 7.7: Contours of the X Velocity on the x=95,x=130, and x=165 Surfaces11. Use numerical reports to determine the average, minimum, and maximum of thevelocity distribution before and after the porous substrate.Report /Surface Integrals...(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 from the Surfaces selection list.(d) Click Compute.(e) Select Facet Minimum from the Report Type drop-down list and click Computeagain.(f) Select Facet Maximum from the Report Type drop-down list and click Computeagain.(g) Close the Surface Integrals panel.The numerical report of average, maximum and minimum velocity can be seen inthe main FLUENT console, as shown in the following example:The spread between the average, maximum, and minimum values for X velocitygives the degree to which the velocity distribution isnon-uniform. You can also usethese numbers to calculate the velocity ratio (i.e., the maximum velocity divided bythe mean velocity) and the space velocity (i.e., the product of the mean velocity andthe substrate length).Custom field functions and UDFs can be also used to calculate more complex measuresof non-uniformity, such as the standard deviation and the gamma uniformityindex.SummaryIn this tutorial, you learned how to set up and solve a problem involving gas flow throughporous media in FLUENT. You also learned how to perform appropriate post-processingto investigate the flow field, determine the pressure drop across the porous media andnon-uniformity of the velocity distribution as the fluid goes through the porous media.Further ImprovementsThis tutorial guides you through the steps to reach an initial solution. You may be ableto obtain a more accurate solution by using an appropriate higher-order discretizationscheme and by adapting the grid. Grid adaption can also ensure that the solution isindependent of the grid. These steps are demonstrated in Tutorial 1.。
