I have tried to model shock tube in ansys fluent but I am not getting good results. My model is as follows:
Shock tube : Geometry : Circular tube of Internal Diameter = 800 mm
Bursting Pressure of Diaphragm= 10 MPa (P4)
Driver Gas = Air
Driven Gas= Air
Ambient Pressure=0.101325 MPa
T4=310 K
T1=310 K
Driver Length= 6m
Driven Length=6m
Boundary Conditions in Ansys:
Cylinder wall= wall
In my Case there is no end wall so this is open shock tube and I have model it as outlet, Non reflecting surfaces and set gauge pressure=0
To apply P4 and P1 in zone 4 and zone 1, I have used adapt > region (define regions) > initialize> patch for both zones.
after solving I am not getting correct result. Please Some body help me in modelling shock tube in ansys (I have not model diaphragm in it)??
Thanks and Regards,
