Abstract

Currently, software products for numerical simulation of fluid dynamics processes (Ansys, Star CCM+, Comsol) are widely used in the power engineering industry when designing new equipment. However, computer simulation methods embedded in proprietary software products make specialists choose grid settings, boundary conditions, and a solver providing the minimal deviation from experimental data with the maximal calculation speed. This paper analyzes the influence of the main grid settings and boundary conditions in the Ansys software package on the error in the computer simulation of flows in standard elements of power equipment and gives recommendations for their optimal choice. As standard elements were considered blade turbine channels formed by C-90-22 A profiles.
