hello experts,

i'm trying to simulate the flow coming out from a valve like below image

Can AcuSolve do this simulation?

Should i use Level Set Multiphase model or anything else?

About the turbulence model, is S-A suitable for this? or just use Laminar like the tutorials from AcuSolve?

Thank you for always great support & answers.

    For now Levelset multiphase would likely be the best approach.  It won't capture all the individual droplets, but may be able to give the general shape.  Adding turbulence - S-A or Realizable k-epsilon is probably important.

    Hi Acupro,

    Thank you for your response.

    Yesterday, i tried with Level Set BFECC & Laminar flow & Slip condition (without Boundary Layer mesh)

    The result seems good for the concept.
