[ICEM] axial fan with fan boundary condtion

IvoST · November 29, 2017, 06:40

I have a cylinder with a diameter of 1.25m and a length of 5m. In the middle of the cylinder I want to create a fan using the "fan boundary condition" in fluent.
I am not sure how to use this BC. I have generated the geometry in ICEM CFD.

In the FLUENT User Guide is written that it has to be modeled as an interface between cells. I do not know how to create such an interface. Can somebody help me with this problem?

Regards

Please take a look at this link to Ansys Fluent documentation https://www.sharcnet.ca/Software/Ans...ec_bc_fan.html
