Hi I just wanted to know if it's possible to mix two miscible fluids like Ethanol and Water with a high velocity injection? I just don't seem to be able to figure it out since I have been getting convergence and singularity errors all the time.
Another question I have is if it is possible to mix the same two fluids like Ethanol and Water with orbital motion at a high speed. I seem to get the same errors. I have uploaded the two files. Pls any help is appreciated.
Thanks

COMSOL offers a product called the Mixer Module, which is an optional add-on to the CFD Module. You can read more about it here:

You can check whether the Mixer Module is included on your license by going to File > Licensed and Used Products.

Best,

Jeff

So there is no other way to mix miscible fluids like Ethanol and Water? Even with Phase Set method of normal CFD Module? I don't have the mixer module

It's almost always possible to implement on your own features that are otherwise found in an existing product, but it rarely makes sense to do so (Depends on the features, of course), but certainly you can try.
