Oxmox New Member Join Date: Jun 2010 Posts: 11 Rep Power: 15	Hi, I'm using Ansys workbench v14.0, I want to simulate the flow of air in an inlet distributor for a microchannel heat exchanger in Fluent. I was recommended to use a porous body calculation instead of the actual modelling of the microchannels in order to save calculation time, but couldn't get it to work yet. So what do I have to do to be able to set a particular volume as a porous body of defined pressure drop and connect it to a fluid volume? Thanks for any hints you can give me.
