Mesh for 180 pipe using the baffle spacing of pilot plant: 0.1 x 1 m Mesh vertical (first length = 0.001, interval count = 100) Horizontal (successive ratio = 1.1, inverval count = 20)

Now solve in fluent (Using parameter from pilot plant)
vol flow rate = 109 L/min = 1.82e-3 m^3/s
pipe diameter = 3in = 0.0762m
area = 0.018m^2
velocity = Q/A = 0.1m/s

Mesh for 180 pipe bend done for both sharp turn and smooth turn. Mesh criteria: successive ration 1.1. Interval size = 0.1 for vertical line and 0.05 for horizontal line.
