How to add source on the wall?

February 11, 2005, 20:02

Hi,everyone I encounter a case which can be solved through adding a mass soure on the wall. I see these methods somewhere, but I didn't catch details. If someone can give me help for more details?

You'll have to wait for CFX-5.8 (this summer) to add sources at walls.

Hi,

You should contact your CFX representative and request information about the sources on boundaries beta feature already embedded within the 5.7/5.7.1 executable. However, I should mention that those sources are only for scalars: energy, additional variables and mass fraction components.. If your source will not visibly (I mean a lot ) affect the mass in your system, you may be able to use it..

I am sure Robin is not joking.. The upcoming CFX-5.8 release already support the boundary sources with all the same functionality you see for subdomain/point sources.

Hi,

I don't quite get the joke? Is it because of the old joke..."oh that will be in the NEXT version"??
