Guidance Needed for CFD Simulations of Mixers in STAR-CCM+

Hello everyone,

I recently graduated with a degree in Fluid Mechanics and have prior experience with simulation projects, primarily using COMSOL and OpenFOAM. However, I’m new to STAR-CCM+ and would like to perform CFD simulations for mixers.

From my initial research, it seems that the MRF (Multiple Reference Frame) method is widely used for such simulations. That said, I’ve come across limited tutorials specific to STAR-CCM+, and I’m hoping to get some advice from experienced users of this software.

Specifically, I’d appreciate guidance on:

Mastering STAR-CCM+: Tips, resources, or learning strategies that can accelerate my understanding of the software.
Simulating Mixers: Best practices, common pitfalls to avoid, or any specific workflows/tutorials for modeling mixers.

Any recommendations, resources, or insights you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
