Abstract :
The paper is devoted to numerical simulation of space effects appearing with flow junction attachment and separation. Gas and oil flows through T-bends are considered. Algorithm based on two-parametric k-theory turbulence models is suggested. Among models there used k-ε models and original k-L model. Obtained results are analyzed and explained, practical recommendations on appropriate t-bend geometry are given.
