hi,
i have some problems about cfx, if i use multigray model in radiation model, cfx will apparance error as fllow:


Prefix error in variable 'CH4.molf' referenced in parameter 'Absorption Coefficient' in object '/FLOW:Flow Analysis 1/DOMAIN:combustor/FLUID MODELS/THERMAL RADIATION MODEL/SPECTRAL MODEL/GRAY GAS:Gas 4'.
The prefix 'CH4' is not recognised in domain 'combustor' in flow 'Flow Analysis 1'.

but ch4 has been add in cfx.


every boday who can help me...............

ANSYS CFX is case sensitive, CH4 and ch4 are different materials.

w/o looking at the command file, it is difficult to tell if fluid prefix is also needed for your case, i.e. Mixture.CH4.molf to be explicit about the fluid and the component the expression is referring to.

Hope the above helps,

thanks very much for your help，the CCL is above，and the radiation model ccl
is as follows

&replace EXPRESSIONS:
Tclip = Tmax * step((T-Tmax)/ 1.[K]) + T * step((Tmax-T) / 1.[K])

abscoef3 = (k3 * (H2O.molf + CO2.molf + CO.molf) + kHC3 * CH4.molf) * pabs
abscoef4 = (k4 * (H2O.molf + CO2.molf + CO.molf) + kHC4 * CH4.molf) * pabs

I have find the solution to the problem，because i haven‘t add radiation model in
material.if I add radiation model in reacting mixture，it will be right。。。。。
