PHOENICS Version : 2.0

DETAILS :

Three-Dimensional steady Flow
Polar-Cylindrical Computational grid

NOTES :

Idealised model of a cylindrical separator rotating at 50 rad/sec
A Water/Oil/Gas mixture enters the cylinder and exits through three outlets : One for each component

Configuration as follows :
