... stripping. T-junction has been known as a typical component susceptible to high cycle thermal fatigue. Accurate prediction of turbulent flow and thermal fields at the wall is necessary to predict the thermal fatigue degradation in such piping systems. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with advanced...

... Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of a T-junction are performed. In the T-junction, the diameters of the branch/main pipes are 40/142.5 mm, and the lengths of the branch/main pipes are 3D b /6D m . The Volume of Fluid (VOF) method and RNG k-ε model are employed in this simulation to get a clear gas...

... The present numerical study focuses on the predictions of thermal mixing in a T-junction using two types of approaches; the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and the Unsteady RANS technique. The numerical predictions are compared to the experimental reference data of Westin et al. (2008). Beforehand...
