Cosmos Floworks: Rotating Impeller

Could you please let me know where are those tuturial?

Thanks,
Robin

You can find the tutorial in the solidworks folder. As I don´t know in which folder you copied solidworks here it is for the C drive.
Try this with the explorer: C:\SolidWorks\COSMOS\FloWorks\lang\english\Docs

In this folder you will find three documents as PDF-Files.

I hope this could help you.

Hi,
first of all, and excuse me if it sounds trivial, is the "rotating frame" checkbox activated? Then, are the "rotating" surfaces correctly defined? In fact, as the rotating frame is banally a matter of relative velocities, if by chance you selected the statoric surfaces as rotating, everything will always be "reversed".
As for the pressures, bear in mind that the calculation is always "relative", that means it proceeds with the equations of energy conservation from a "total pressure" the fluid has at the inlet. You can tell the system the "real" total pressure of the fluid if you know it, but more in general if you are interested in the energy "gain" given by the impeller you can tell the system that the fluid has arbitrary total pressure (i.e. energy) at the inlet. This may avoid some "negative pressure" issues. In fact, FloWorks, afaik, can not detect cavitation etc, so the search for "extremely realistic" situations is pointless.
