Giving Boundary condition to an edge of a cube in Fluent

Abhidex · January 13, 2018, 01:31

hello everyone,
I am doing an analysis of a material which is in shape of a cube and i need to give boundary condition to only an edge (e.g zero heat flux to an edge). So I created a line body on the edge so that I can give boundary condition but in Fluent 3D analysis the zone is not visible in the boundary condition box.

Why you need to specify only on an edge? Is that physically possible? Can you give more details?

One thing you can do is to create a pair of smalls walls near this edge and set them as cero heat flux.
