Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis for Wastewater Floc Breakage in Orifice Flow

In the present work, the breakage of wastewater particles in orifice flow is investigated through numerical simulations. Using maximum strain rate along particle paths as the breakage criterion, breakage is predicted using computational fluid dynamics. The numerical simulations confirm that nominal...
