Hi everyone.

I am simulating flow through a thermal energy storage tank using fluent. I am using the non equilibrium thermal conditions for the fluid and the filler material.

When I tried to select the non-equilibrium thermal model, I got an error saying " The type of the cell zone that overlaps the porous fluid zone is not defined as a solid and such a setup is incompatible with the non-equilibrium thermal model.
Switching to the equilibrium thermal model".

I tried changing my geometry but it still is not working.

Any suggestions ?
