AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on creating a calibration curve for a rotameter in COMSOL, specifically relating the height of a float to flow rate. The user is struggling to simulate the movement of a solid float within a pipe under flow conditions and seeks guidance on defining the float's position in the software. They mention having the necessary equations but are unsure how to implement the float's height change in response to flow. Additionally, there is a note about issues with image uploads, suggesting that images need to be hosted online or attached properly. The urgency of the request indicates a pressing need for assistance in resolving these simulation challenges.

i am working with making a rotameter in comsol.i want to make a calibration curve (height of float vs. flow rate).

i failed to move the solid float through the pipe with velocity.how i can define the solid float in comsol? when i will give flow at bottom then how i can simulate the float to change the height. i have the necessary equation but i failed how i can change the position of the float??

its urgent please help...

Your image uploads did not appear to work. I think for images, they need to be hosted on a website and linked to with the image tags. Maybe try uploading them as attachments instead...
