I have a tank containing oxygen in the left side and hydrogen in the right side and the interface separates the 2 gases initially and they are not mixed together. The initial conditions: 0 velocity for both the fluids, pressure = 1 atm everywhere, and all the properties of the 2 gases are taken from the material library.
The geometry file is attached. Upon applying the acceleration of gravity in the horizontal direction to the left the interface separating the 2 fluids is supposed to move to the left.
I did the simulation using the laminar flow, but i did not get a change in density of the 2 fluids and the interface remains in the initial position.
I tried using multiphase flow as well, but still no successful results in terms of density change.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
