Baffle

wusuhong · March 1, 2013, 03:35

I am doing a side weir project, i want to get the flow rate through the weir.
Setting up a baffle is the method, right?
however, how to set up the baffle?
Is there anybody can help me?...Thanks very much.

go to meshing and geometry then baffles the right click on baffles then choose add then check define as flux surface then type 1 to porosity in porosity properties. then you can define it on your project in limiters.

I did as the these steps before, but the result Q=0, for many times.
Is there any tips when set up the baffle?
