| Summary: | In the textile industry, drying is one of the most important processes. This process requires large investments and high energy consumption, which generates high costs for companies in this sector. In this work, a modeling of the behavior of the air was carried out in a textile Stenter, under real operating conditions through the development of fluid-dynamic simulations. For the computational modeling of the problem, a 3D geometry was constructed based on measurements taken from an injector of a textile Stenter. The standard k-ε turbulence model was used in the turbulent flow solution. The equations of the model were solved numerically using the finite element method. The standard k-epsilon turbulence model proved to be a model capable of reproducing the behavior of the air in the injectors of the textile Stenter. |
