In this example, the rotor rotates about the Z-axis at 523.6 rad/s while the stator is stationary. Periodic boundaries are used to allow only a small section of the full geometry to be modeled. The important parameters of this problem are:
• Total pressure = 0.265 bar
• Static Pressure = 0.0662 bar
• Total temperature = 328.5 K
The overall approach to solving this problem is to first define the Frozen Rotor simulation using the Turbomachinery wizard. The mesh for the rotor created in CFX-TASCflow will then be imported and combined with a second mesh (the stator), which was created using CFX-Mesh. The results will be viewed using the Turbo-Post feature. The existing Frozen Rotor simulation will then be modified to define the transient Rotor-Stator simulation. The transient Rotor-Stator simulation will be performed using the steady-state Frozen Rotor asan initial guess. Finally, a transient animation showing domain movement will be created in CFD-Post.
