Good morning, I'm an Italian student and I'm doing my graduationn thesis on the utilization of Fluent to simulate the drop formation from a membrane's pore. I should build the mesh with Gambit and I would like to know if some of you have some information about this subjet. Thank you very much!!!

Hi Chiara, Do you have any particular question? Its difficult to gauge what information you would like to know. A few more details will be helppful - Phil

Yes, you're right. I would like to simulate the formation of a drop from a membrane's pore in the pressure's homogenization process. I talked with someone about it but they told me that Fluent is not appropriated because I should model the formation of the drop from a fixed support so I cab't use Fluent but other CFD like Femlab. Wath do you think about it? Thank you for informations.

Yeah, I think you heard right. As far as I am aware, Fluent does not have any model/method of simulating drop formation. Most of the droplet models I have seen assume that the droplet is already formed and simulate from that point forward. I am not sure what package will be good for this. Femlab might be good, but you might want to ask someone with experience in using it.
