Cay tyre spray

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear all,

Does anyone know how to begin modelling spray from a car tyre? I'd like to see the evolution of a puddle of water after a car has driven through it.

Thanks

Hi Matt,
In theory, you'd account for multiphase flow (with surface tension playing an important role) and fluid structure interaction with large deformations and displacements; realistically speaking, you're looking at an incredibly challenging numerical problem and I would take any "results" with a barrel of salt.
