1. GEOMETRY

Geometry
As a mentioned in a question, I take geometry W = 10 mm. Followed following steps:

1. In sketch plane selected rectangle with 10mm


2. After selecting end sketching in sketch plane of a ribbon bar.
3. Then use pull in a ribbon bar with length of 501.5mm

2.GEOMETRY DEFINATION AND MESHING
In a meshing display firstly defined inlet, outlet and wall.

Inlet:

Inlet

Outlet:

outlet

Wall:

wall

Then updating and generating mesh with element size 1mm and
physics preference is CFD.

Meshing

Then the result generated from meshing is:

Nodes: 60742

Element: 50100

Calculation

General: set solver 1, pressure – based and time- steady

Materials: set a fluid air

Boundary Condition: Set inlet velocity magnitude 10 m/s.

Reference Condition: set compute from inlet and reference zone: select
defined geometry

Graphics: select pathlines change color by velocity and velocity


magnitude and save/display.

Initialization: select standard methods compute from inlet.

Run Calculation: Set parameter 200 no. iterations. Then calculate.

4.FLUENT RESULT

1. In result firstly select wall, inlet and outlet with select render in
option with 0.90 transparency.
2. Then, in ribbon bar select streamline 1 with type: surface
streamline
3. Alternatively, we take streamline 2 with type: 3D streamline

Output we get at inlet, 1.343 * 10^1 m/s, at boundary is 0 m/s .

Then we get at outlet, we get 2,238*10^1, at boundary we get o m/s.

Fig. Max velocity

The output of rectangular duct is higher than circular in both cases i.e.
at inlet and outlet.
