Hi everybody!
I am an engineering student and I’m preparing my master’s degree thesis. I am studying Thermal Energy Storage Systems. In particular I’m focusing on air motion inside a cylinder of porous material.

In gambit to simulate pores I have to draw a fluid square cell (pore) “side 8mm” with a thickness of 1mm (for a total of 10mm) and 1000mm in length.
On the frontal external surface(thickness) I should put a 3x3 mesh, a 20x20 mesh in the pore and on the length I must make 300 knots. I wrote a previous post about a similar problem and you have been very helpful.

I hope you can do the same now!

Hi max!!
When I export the file in Fluent there is the following message:

Note: Separating wall zone 4 into zones 4 and 1.
wall -> wall (4) and wall:001 (1)
Note: Separating interior zone 8 into zones 8 and 7.
default-interior -> default-interior (8) and default-interior:007 (7)

What did I do wrong?

How many volumes do you have?
What is your domain?
Do you need internal parallelepiped?If not, did you subtract it from the external parallelepiped?

Post pictures.
