For comparison, the pressure drops of the two rotation vanes were determined. The CFD-based empirical model is capable of estimating pipeline velocity and pressure, and the modelling results have been validated by a prior investigation through an experiment. The viscosity, density, and inlet fluid velocity of 10m/s to 30m/s are the input parameters to ANSYS Fluent, and the output of the computer simulation is velocity and pressure at two different sections. The simulation results were taken in two sections: (1) A-A and (2) B-B section, each section consisting of ten points (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, P8, P9, and P10) throughout the pipe's cross-section with 0.054m distance between two-points. Due to the presence of the rotation vane, the velocity and pressure distribution at section B-B is slightly uneven according to the analysis. At the pipe cross-wall, the velocity and pressure are both zero due to boundary conditions. A comparison between (1)10° and (2)33° rotation vane blade angles was made using an example of the result with inlet velocity of 30m/s at section B-B. The following are the results: velocity: (1) 34.24 m/s and (2) 34.89 m/s, pressure: (1) 326.93 Pa and (2) 297.61 Pa, and pressure drop: (1) 510.86 Pa and (2) 590.41 Pa. The results of this investigation show that ANSYS can estimate the velocity and pressure of two different types of rotation vanes. The ideal and optimal angle for a rotation vane blade is 10° degrees. According to this study, since it results in lowest velocity, static pressure, and pressure drop, all of which improve fluid flow efficiency in pipe bends and reduces the erosion effect. shafika UTM 103 p.
