TUI : reverse fan direction

frodooon · July 16, 2013, 06:32

Hi everybody,

I'm writing a journal file, and I'd like to reverse some fan directions. So, I'm in the TUI using :
/define/boundary-conditions/fan ... and then I can define all the settings about the fan, but there is no option (like in the GUI) to reverse the fan direction.

Does anyone know how to do that ?

Thanks,

Arnaud.

Ok sorry, just need to input "-1" instead of 1..

absolutly , there is a option to reverse the direction of the fan model in fluent.
and you can found it when you define the fan model in the boundary conditions.
