Summary

In the paper, the compressible flow and energy separation phenomena are simulated numerically by using the code system Fluent 6.0. In order to calculate successfully the energy separation, the conservation equations for mass, energy and radial, axial and azimuthal momentum were solved simultaneously. The Reynolds stress model for 2D compressible, axisymmetric swirl flow as used to carry out the computation. It can allow post-calculation of experimental results.
