Domagala, Mariusz | Momeni, Hassan | Fabis-Domagala, Joanna
This study presents CFD simulations of the flow of contaminated oil inside a control valve to investigate the influence of solid contaminants on the valve operational features. The Euler-Lagrange approach has been used to simulate the flow of oil contaminated with solid particles. The CFD simulations allowed determining the effect of solid contamination on the value of hydrodynamic force and a pressure drop for different contamination levels and valve opening.
