How to define boundary conditions for the wall

March 20, 2001, 11:02

Guys, I am facing a problem when define boundary conditions, where a fluid and a solid contact. Should I define boundary type as wall for both the two adjacent faces, one of the fluid and the other of the solid, in GAMBIT?

And, should I define boundary conditions for both those faces, in FLUENT?

help!

Only one face should be used as the contact boundary.

thanks for your help. I still want to know which face should I use. Doesn't it matter? Hoping for your answer

No, it doen't matter. There is only one face.
