Cyclone Separator with Particle Separation: Exercise 1—Extracting the Fluid Domain
Fluid domain extraction is the creation of a closed geometric region that surrounds the fluid.
1. Click > and navigate to the Advanced_FlowAnalysisModels folder. Click OK.
3. From the File Open dialog box, browse to the cyclone_assembly folder and select cyclone_4.asm. Click Open.
4. Click
in the Graphics toolbar to display the style elements. Select

Flow Analysis tab opens.
7. Click
New Project. If the Residual plot opens, close it.
8. Click

Fluid Domain Creation tab opens. Two surfaces appear in the
Surface Sets dialog box, under
Included surfaces.
Adding the Simulation Domain
1. In the Fluid Domain Creation tab select Add to Simulation.
2. Click
to create the fluid domain.
CYCLONE_4_FLUID_1.PRT appears in the Model Tree and
CYCLONE_4_FLUID_1:Body 1 is added under
Domains.
The boundaries for the Boundary ConditionsBC_00001 and BC_00002 and CYCLONE_4_1_FLUID are created automatically and appear in the Flow Analysis Tree under > .
3. Right-click
BC_00001 and select
Rename.
4. In the New name box, type Outlet.
5. Right-click
BC_00002 and select
Rename.
6. In the New name box, type Inlet and click OK.
