Abstract

According to environmental impact of fossil fuel, growth population and demand for energy, it is compulsory to replace the fossil fuel with renewable energy. Hydropower as a renewable energy possesses a lot of potential to provide energy and it is essential to improve the kinetic energy devices to harness the energy of water.

Abstract

Oil-water two-phase flow in 0.0254m horizontal pipe is simulated using FLUENT 6.2. The stratified flow regime is modeled using Volume of Fluid (VOF) with turbulent model RNG k-?. Grid independent study has been conducted to decide mesh size for solution accuracy and optimum computational cost. The simulation is performed in time-dependent simulation where oil and water are initially separated by patching the region base on difference in density. Observation on the effect of velocity to the pressure gradient was also simulated. Flow velocity at 0.2, 0.5, 0.8 and 1.1 m/s with same volume fraction for each phase with appropriate multiphase model and turbulence model are presented.
