I have complex tubular assembly as shown. Fluid flows from internal path, so it will push the Mandrel (green part) towards right side. Some fluid will flow annular gap between Mandrel and restriction (pink part) and then it will force piston (sky color) on left side. Model: k-e Fluid: Cement Inlet B.C.: 79.5 kg/sec Outlet B.C: 0 gauge pressure
My question is
1) Since I want to estimate net force acting on Mandrel (green part), which function (area, area-avg, mass-flow-avg, mass-avg etc , will give me near to exact value in CFX?. I want to make it as monitor point.
2) If I want to find erosion rate by cement flow on solids, what should be approach ?
Thanks.
