Particle tracing and particle concentration

Hi all,

 

I have a question on particle tracing. I want to set up a cfd simulation where an exhaust emits particles. I want to trace these (finite mass) particles and determine the particle concentrations at certain areas. As a bonus it would be nice if I could check the particles which are deposited on a surface near the exhaust.

I want to perform the cfd solution with acusolve while the particle tracing will be done with acutrace. Are the predescribed aspects possible within acusolve and acutrace software?

 

Looking forward to your replies

    Yes it would be possible to particle tracing using AcuTrace for you application. 

    You might want to contact your local Altair Support in case AcuTrace setup gets tricky.
