Overview of the Problem to Solve

This tutorial simulates a static mixer consisting of two inlet pipes delivering water into a mixing vessel; the water exits through an outlet pipe. A general workflow is established for analyzing the flow of fluid into and out of a mixer.

Water enters through both pipes at the same rate but at different temperatures. The first entry is at a rate of 2 m/s and a temperature of 315 K and the second entry is at a rate of 2 m/s at a temperature of 285 K. The radius of the mixer is 2 m.

Your goal in this tutorial is to understand how to use ANSYS CFX to determine the speed and temperature of the water when it exits the static mixer.
