Resumo: In simulations, when using multipartitioned computers, the way in which the mesh is partitioned directly affects the average time per iteration, and therefore, the computational cost. This study proposes an analysis of the average time per iteration of 23 different partition methods available for tridimensional mesh in software FLUENT 19.2. For the calculation of the average iteration time, 100 iterations were used. Generally, the best partitioning methods were those in which the mesh division was made perpendicularly to the axis of the equipment. It was stated the choice of an adequate partitioning method can save high costs of computational power. For the hydrocyclone studied, with a computer with 8 cores, approximately 24.56 hours of simulation were saved, representing almost 20% of the total time.

En este trabajo, se analiza el tiempo promedio por iteración de los 23 métodos de fraccionamiento disponibles para mallas tridimensionales del software FLUENT 19.2. Se realizaron 100 iteraciones para la determinación del tiempo promedio por iteración. En general, los mejores métodos de fraccionamiento fueron aquellos en donde la división de la malla fue hecha perpendicularmente al eje en el cual el equipo se encontraba direccionado. En la simulación de un hidrociclón, mediante el uso de una computadora de 8 núcleos, se logró ahorrar aproximadamente 24.56 horas, lo que significó casi el 20% del tiempo total. De esta manera, la adecuada selección fraccionamiento, puede constituir un gran ahorro del costo computacional.Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2020-10-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/1061710.18540/jcecvl6iss4pp0528-0532The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 6 No. 4 (2020); 0528-0532The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 6 Núm. 4 (2020); 0528-0532The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; v. 6 n. 4 (2020); 0528-05322527-1075reponame:Revista de Engenharia Química e Químicainstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVenghttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/10617/6065Copyright (c) 2020 The Journal of Engineering and Exact Scienceshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Costa, Felipe OrlandoBarcelos Mateus, Felipe Leonardo Petri Júnior, Irineu2021-02-23T20:11:08Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/10617Revistahttp://www.seer.ufv.br/seer/rbeq2/index.php/req2/indexONGhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/oaijcec.journal@ufv.br||req2@ufv.br2446-94162446-9416opendoar:2021-02-23T20:11:08Revista de Engenharia Química e Química - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false
