Abstract
A system and method for automatic generation and usage of fluid flow loss coefficients for T-junctions is disclosed. In one embodiment, a list of possible T-junctions is created using given geometric and flow parameters. Further, journal files are created using the geometric and the flow parameters associated with each T-junction. The journal files associated with each T-junction are pre-processed for creating a volume mesh. Boundary conditions and material properties for the volume mesh associated with each T-junction are defined. Simulation is performed using the volume mesh, the boundary conditions and the material properties associated with each T-junction to determine flow characteristics. Fluid flow loss coefficients for each T-junction are computed using the flow characteristics.
