In this model, you will learn how to use the coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) formulation to simulate the hydrodynamics of a free-falling sphere impacting the free surface of the water. A 3D model of a sphere with an unsteady viscous transient flow condition is used for numerical simulation. This simulation considered the problem of a rigid body sphere touching the free surface of a stationary viscous fluid with a variable velocity at time t = 0 and determining the cavity's shape and the rigid sphere's depth for t > 0 using the coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation.
The 2 kg sphere is modelled as shell geometry and a rigid body constraint is applied. The sphere is placed at the water's surface with a specified initial velocity rather than modeling the entire dropping event from the initial point. An initial velocity of 4 m/s in the normal direction of the water surface corresponds to the speed that would be attained. The sphere and water are subjected to a gravity load. An acceleration of 9.8 m/s2 is applied in the normal direction to the water surface. The Wall boundary condition is applied to sides and bottom surfaces of Eulerian domain to simulate the water tank. Displacement of the sphere is not constrained in any direction and can move freely in all directions.
