mulfal is on a distinguished road
Hi, I have been trying to create a porous media (either in 2d or 3d such as cylinder geometry within other rectangular geometry) using gambit meshing to be used either by fluent or by OpenFoam. The problem is that fluent is unable to read the mesh I have created using gambit. the error message is as follows:
"Cannot change porouscylinder to porous-jump because there is only one adjacent cell thread" and the warning is "inapproperiate zone type (jump) for one sided face zone".

The porous media which have been trying to create was porouscylinder and during the boundary condition setting time, I have chosen porous Jump for the porous cylinder.


Therefore; I would be very grateful if any one can help me solving the error message or any information on creating Porous Jump or Porous Zones geometry within another geometry?


Thank you for your help in advance!
