Abstract

In some special applications of industrial production and aerospace field, the liquid pipeline flow under the pressurized tank is a problem which should be concerned in the design and application of the closed media delivery system [1]. Design Modeler and Meshing module in Workbench is used to establish the two-dimensional model of the liquid tank as well as pipeline and dividing the mesh. The boundary conditions are set and the flow simulation is carried out in Fluent. The results show that: due to internal pressure, external pressure, the interaction of gravity, inertia, and other factors, the entire flow process is divided into three stages, which are respectively the outflow of liquid and gas expansion stage, the liquid outflow and the backflow of gas stage and liquid phase opening. When the tank is connected with the outside world by the upper part of pipeline, liquid shows slow steady flow [2].
