[ANSYS Meshing] Geometry Mesh Deformation question

LukeFullard · July 19, 2012, 19:29

Hello,

I have a question. It is clear that in FLUENT there are options for a geometry that is deforming over time. What is not clear to me is if this option is available in POLYFLOW?

Basically, I want to have, for example, a cylinder with an elastic boundary. Now if I were to "squeeze" the outside of the cylinder in a certain way I want to see how the flow (and the rest of the elastic boundary) develops, hence, my geometry is changed.

If you have any ideas please let me know before I commit to a using POLYFLOW.

Thanks

Hi, I'm not sure it has it or not. You can ask your question at this forum, they're supposed to have an expert in Polyflow. The website is ANSYSforum.com
Go give it a shot...

good luck
