Multiple Porosities

July 21, 2006, 02:31

Hi,

Does anyone have experience in defining different zones of different porosities for an air flow? I want to simulate the flow through a fill, with an inlet gas distributor (no filling, porosity=1) an an outlet collector (same problem). Meshing was no problem - I just defined walls between the different zones and a new part/material point for each zone in ICEM. If you have set up something like this in CFX-Pre before please let me know how you did it!

Cheers

Have you looked at the Catalytic Converter tutorial?

Thanks Robin!

That's what I was looking for.

Cheers
