NMACFoam: Numerical-Model for Membrane-Spacer Assemblies and Configurations in OpenFOAM

Aug 9, 2023, 10:58 AM
NMACFoam, built on the OpenFOAM framework, is a computational fluid dynamics tool specifically designed for simulating flow and solids transport in membrane-spacer channels relevant to reverse osmosis or nanofiltration applications. This tool accommodates complex spacer geometries, incorporates porous wall boundary conditions for membranes, and accurately models concentration polarization effects. With scalability to thousands of processors, NMACFoam enables large-scale simulations at the module level, handling problem sizes ranging from 1 to 10 million cells using high-performance computing resources.
