Abstract: In this paper, we use solid-liquid two-phase mixture model and the k-Ε turbulence
model to numerically simulate the effects of the position of baffles on the removal rate of solids
in a sedimentation tank. The PISO algorithm is used to decouple velocity and pressure. The
distribution of sludge concentration on different cross-sections is obtained by the proposed
model. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
