Specifying and Benchmarking a Thin Film Model for Oil Systems Applications in ANSYS Fluent
Keyword(s):
A thin film model developed for calculating the oil film flow in aero-engine bearing chamber is described. The performance of the model, which has been implemented in the commercial computational fluid dynamics software product: ANSYS Fluent, is benchmarked by comparing the computational results obtained from a Nottingham UTC in-house code and a development version of Fluent. Both codes are used to solve thin film flow in a test case configuration and based on the same finite area method. With identified constraints, the two implementations agree well.
