    I am trying to plot the moment about the shaft of my reactor vs time. So I created a report definition for the moment and put the axis as 0,0,1 (z axis) and the moment centre as (0,0,0) which is the centre of the bottom of my reactor, and selected the shaft's named selection. But the moment doesn't reach a steady state constant value after sometime (although I plotted turbulent kinetic energy as a function of time, and it reached a steady state value constant value). Can you please tell me how can the moment's value be made to reach a steady-state value?

    Hello,
    I am working on the vertical axis water turbine project with Ansys Fluent (multiphase flow: VOF method). After the computations, the average Monitors value I got was a negative value. This would suggest a negative torque value which is clearly wrong, I do not know the exact reason for this . I am getting negative moment values when I put moment center as (0 0 0) and moment axis as (0 0 1). but I get the positive moment when I put (0 0 -1) direction.
    I would really appreciate any help you can offer.

    Thanks

    Hi it was very good explanation and it was helpful.
    I am little sceptical, when we theoretically calculate torque we use mass moment of inertia and angular acceleration but here we are just considering the resulted mass momentum, where we never define any mass or moment of inertia.
    Can you please advise me or guide me on this, if I am missing out something or if I am thinking it in different way

    • @CFD_Mechanic
      @CFD_Mechanic  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It should be decided when you were designing it on paper. However you can choose inlet velocity as 5 m/s and choose appropriate TSR (Tip speed ratio = V/wr, where V = incoming velocity which is supposed to be 5 m/sec, r is radius of tip and w is omega in rad/s)

Once solution is periodic in nature, it will show you value of torque varying in cyclic fashion. Like sine wave etc. Now again disregard few cycles of this converged solution and then use data of last five cycles. Import that file into excel and take average of all time steps. Use that torque and multiply with omega (rad/s) and you will get average power.
