In this exercise, you are asked to simulate the liquid flow through a liquid processing plant as shown in Figure 7.55.

In the liquid processing industry, liquid is passed through several tanks as shown in Figure 7.55. The diagram shows a simplified model of such a plant. With appropriate assumptions, simplify the problem further and determine the flow mechanism. The raw liquid is pumped into the plant from the left-hand side at a Reynolds number of 400 which is based on the width of the inlet channel and inlet velocity.

Include appropriate assumptions and formulate a simplified physical problem. The simplification should be in such a way that the model should not lose accuracy and at the same time should not be very expensive to solve. Discuss the project and design the boundary limits and conditions.
Once the problem has been simplified to two dimensions, generate a mesh and solve the problem using the CBSflow solver. Determine the temperature distribution if the bottom surface of the tank is hotter than the incoming fluid. Neglect the buoyancy effects and assume the liquid is water in the heat transport problem.
